Beautiful Magic

Beautiful Magic

she cast a spell you can't escape
before you know it
she's taken it away
she got you hooked on her drug
that drives you insane
but she's taken it away
though the memory remains
those feelings of euphoria
those times you made love to her
you really don't mind the pain
except the pain in your mind
she's taken it away
how will you survive
you thought your life had found it's beat
deep down you knew one day you'd meet
but she's taken it away
and now you can't sleep
poisoned by her beautiful magic

her spell worked fast
clasping you in it's grasp
and now you wonder if it'll ever let go
tugging your heart to and fro
filling your mind with visions of her
things you try to forget
but you've failed so far
and you can't help but wonder
if this spell will ever end
if you'll ever find comfort
if the breaking will mend
the two of you joined so briefly
yet forever is but a blink
her beautiful magic
casting you to the brink
she's gone and it is so tragic
a love story departed and sad
forget her
beautiful magic
