Don't Kill The Magic by Magic! (cover)

LYRICS:

I.
Sitting, waiting at the bus stop
Thinking of ways to fly
Must be the rhythm of the raindrops
That keep me awake at night

II.
Took a ride out on the freeway
To where the heart would lead
Oh, I've been looking for a getaway
Singing this melody

PreChorus.
Oh oh, I guess I'm in it
But I don't know if I can win it
It's a long road
And now I'm stuck in line
But it's alright

Chorus.
'Cause it ain't over
Just waiting for the train to move
Ain't got an answer
Just faith in what's in store on the other side
I'm hoping again
Holding on till the end
Stop, look, and listen
Or you'll miss it

III.
It's never easy to begin again
Now it's clear as it can be
Can't keep on living in what might have been
Guess I have to let it be

IV.
So I'll take a shot at what's ahead now
Lord, lead me where I go
Won't get a vision with my head down
So reach within my soul

LYRICS:

I.
Can’t wake up in the morning, oh dear!
‘Cause I spent hours overthinking, now it’s clear,
I stayed up all night.

II.
What if my heart is jaded? Oh no!
Would it be overrated of a show
If I’d put up a fight?

III.
Time to venture to your tower far away,
In a castle or whatever, someday,
I’d show up as a knight.

Pre-chorus.
‘Till then I’ll pray I’d know you, princess, the only question’s when.
Still on my way, but then again…

Chorus.
It’ll be alright, just another page. In time, you and I would be together…
Gonna shout it out, “I won’t have any other than…”
They chime “It’s now or never”, (but) I hope you don’t mind, I won’t take forever…
I’d get to you, so wait for me.

IV.
And when I get to climb the ladder, somehow,
Fourth of a score and just another from now.
It would be with all my might.

V.
Though it be okay from my appraisal, but hey,
I’d still await for His approval. That way
It would all turn out right.

Bridge.
Are you the one who’s hardly out of sight?
Who knows the time of when to stop and when to fight.
Like the voice inside that told me “let her go”

Are you the one I’d meet right off the street?
With just a smile and you’d knock me off my feet.
Guess I’ll never be so sure, but this I know...

I’ll be the one to guard you through the night.
Just hold my hand, you’ll know it’d be oh-alright.
I’d make sure each day I spend with you would be a better day.

I’ll be the one who knows just how you feel,
And all the while you’d know this is something real.
But for now all I can say is…

It’s alright, just another.... In time, you and I would be together…
