Simple Minds


Magic
Now I believe in forces

I need the truth, the reason why
Was so amazed, such a lucky child
And then something died
Like everybody it hurt inside
And I would walk to the city with my wounded pride
But everybody is too busy and you're wondering why
There's a hole inside
I need a pill, not an alibi

Now it's all coming together
And it breaks like a storm
This is our kind of weather

'Cause now that I believe in magic
I believe in your lips
I believe things coming away
Now I believe in forces
I believe it's all said
Nothing here can make me sway
And now that I believe in magic
Nothing can confound us
Nothing can explain away
Now I believe in forces
I believe in your steps
Taking me some other way

Lost inhibition, I'd lose my mind
Reality was no friend of mine
So I thought I knew
But everybody's just kidding you
And I remember when I stumbled on a slippery stone
I was in the jungle and I couldn't get home
Was in a zoo
Without a single clue

Now it's all coming together
And it breaks like a storm
This is our kind of weather

'Cause now that I believe in magic
I believe in forces

I believe in magic
I believe in your lips
I believe things coming away
Now I believe in forces
I believe it's all said
Nothing here can make me sway
And now that I believe in magic
Nothing can confound us
Nothing can explain away
Now I believe in forces
I believe in your steps
Taking me some other way

I believe in magic
I believe in forces
