Lyrics

Magic

[Verse 1]

We paid our dues

No lust for fame

When tides get turned

They know your name

When all of you were fast asleep

We made ourselves the ones to beat

[Chorus]

Ah, we were down on our knees

We were so close to defeat

Heard a chant, grab your hand

One thing I'll never understand

It was magic, magic (oh)

Skies are blue; fields are green

And the crowd was deafening

Out of breath, all within

But still we found a way to win

It was magic, magic (oh)

We run for love

We run through hurt

But gods conspire

Our fall to earth

But not before we light the flame

And feed our hunger for the game

[Chorus]

Ah, we were down on our knees

We were so close to defeat

Heard a chant, grab your hand

One thing I'll never understand

It was magic, magic (oh)

Skies are blue; fields are green

And the crowd was deafening

Out of breath, all within

But still we found a way to win

It was magic, magic (oh)

[Bridge]

Oh, our blood will run together

And we won't know surrender (oh)

[Chorus]

Ah, we were down on our knees

We were so close to defeat

Heard a chant, grab your hand

One thing I'll never understand

It was magic, magic (oh)

Skies are blue; fields are green

And the crowd was deafening

Out of breath, all within

But still we found a way to win

It was magic, magic (oh)
