I Never
Magic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll never tell you I'm sorry
I'll never apologize
And I'll hold back nothing
I won't tell no lies

So tell me your secrets
They're safe with me
There's just no telling
How lucky you'll be
But if it's worth taking
You better swallow the key

No one's gotta know what goes on under the covers
We can lay low and never get discovered

I spent some time in Bossier
I ran a table around
I got plenty deep pockets
Would never come down
And we can ride the river
We're never gonna drown

So no one's gotta know what goes on under the covers
We can lay low and never get discovered

Why you love to cut
But what is love without blood
I, I won't rob you blind
But I got no time
For sweating dimes

You caught me in your snare
You were in a red dress
I must confess
You had me made





No one's gotta know what goes on under the covers
We can lay low and never get discovered

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Magic!'s song "I Never" seem to be about a secretive, intense and possibly illicit relationship. The singer assures the other person that they won't apologise for anything, implying that they are unapologetically themselves, possibly even reckless. They also promise not to hold back anything, indicating that they are willing to be vulnerable and open with the other person. The singer also asks the other person to share their secrets, asserting that they won't betray their trust. The line "But if it's worth taking, you better swallow the key" suggests that whatever they share will be kept a secret forever.


The chorus of the song highlights the idea of secrecy and the attraction of staying hidden from the world. The singer suggests that they can "lay low" together and "never get discovered". They also express a carefree outlook on life, asserting that they "can ride the river" and won't drown. They imply that they have plenty of money and don't need to worry about anything, possibly hinting at some sort of illegal activity.


The second verse of the song seems to be about the passion and violence of their relationship. The line "Why you love to cut, but what is love without blood" suggests that they enjoy pain and intensity in their relationship. The singer also implies that they are too busy to worry about small things, saying "I got no time for sweating dimes". The verses are also peppered with vivid imagery, such as the mention of a red dress, which adds to the overall intensity and intimacy of the song.

Just like magic (Magic)

Do you think that you could last one whole day?
Without making a peep, or chiming in to what the people say…
Do you think that you could last one whole day?
Without making a peep, or chiming in to what the people say…
I don’t think so.

I know someone downtown who’ll let us drink for free
The best moments in life are always cheap
I got a couple of tricks hidden up my sleeve
Spend the night with me then you’ll know what I mean

I got 69 problems but a witch ain’t one
She’s been casting her spells, but I’ve fallen in love
I got a couple of tricks hidden up my sleeve
Spend the night with me then you’ll know what I mean.
Magic (Magic)
Just like magic (Magic)
Magic (Magic)
Just like magic (Magic)

Do you think that you could last one whole night?
Without sleeping a wink, staying out under the moonlight.
