MAGIC! Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey baby, baby
Your heart's too big to be treated small
So please don't blame me, blame me
For trying to be the one who could have it all
You know that it's stupid, stupid
Telling you it's dark when you see the light
And I know you ain't foolish, foolish
Just give me one chance, I could treat you right
So I said

Will I ever be too far away when you feel alone?
(No way, no)
Will I ever back down my sword to protect our home?
(No way, no)
Will I ever spend a day not telling you you're beautiful?
(No way, no)
No way, no way, no
(No way, no way, no)

My sister, sister
Told me that if love ever hits your eyes
I promise you'll miss her, miss her
The second that she walks right out your sight
So we should just do it (do it, do it)
'Cause I don't wanna risk her being right
Let's not be foolish
Don't you know that family never lies?
I promise that

Will I ever be too far away when you feel alone?
(No way, no)
Will I ever back down my sword to protect our home?
(No way, no)
Will I ever spend a day not telling you you're beautiful?
(No way, no)
No way, no way, no
(No way, no way, no)

Hey lady, lady
Life's too short to be waiting long
So let's not waste it, waste it
When we both know you're the one, ooh oh

Will I ever be too far away when you feel alone?
(No way, no)
Will I ever back down my sword to protect our home?
(No way, no)
Will I ever spend a day not telling you you're beautiful?
(No way, no)
No way, no way, no
(No way, no way, no)

(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)

(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)

(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)

(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
(No way, no way, no)
