Long handwritten note, deep in your pocket Words, how little they mean, when they're a little too late I stood right by the tracks, your face in a locket Good girls, hopeful they'll be and lonely will wait
We had a beautiful magic love affair What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
In dreams, I meet you in long conversation We both wake in lonely beds, and different cities And time is ticking a sweet summer race in you And you've got your demons and darling they all look like me
Cause we had a beautiful magic love affair What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
Distance, tire me, break down, fighting Silence, this train runs off its tracks Kiss me, try to fix it, would you just try to listen Hang up, give up, for the life of us we can't get it back
A beautiful magic love affair What a sad beautiful tragic, beautiful tragic, beautiful What we had, a beautiful magic love affair What a sad beautiful tragic love affair We had a beautiful magic love affair What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
