10 o 'clock,
saying goodnight,
calling just to be polite
Spending lots of weekend
time alone
Photographs from happier days
Hanging there to count away
Love that's lost can never
go back home
When the magic lies, everything
Fade the heart and made it sink
Fades away to the night
Like a shooting star that's falling
When the magic lights
And you can see it in the eye
And what once was sweet agreement
Turns to compromise
Did we try too hard?
Did the love just fall apart?
Or did one of us come begging
for our broken heart?
Have a seat, a table for two
Me with me and you with you
Nothing too important can be said
Pour the wine and lift up the glass
The baby shall be tossed to pass
Careful not to look at
where it lands
When the magic dies, everything
That fed the heart and made it sing
Fades away into the night
Like a shooting star that's falling
When the magic lies,
you can see it in the eye
And what once was sweet agreement
turns to compromise
Did we try too hard?
Did the love just fall apart?
Or did one of us come back
for a broken heart?
When we met tonight,
you can see it in the eye
And what once was sweet agreement
has come to mind
Did we try too hard?
Did love get far apart?
Or did one of us come begging for a broken heart?
. . you
