Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long handwritten note deep in your pocket
Words, how little they mean when you're a little too late
I stood right by the tracks, your face in a locket
Good girls, hopeful they'll be, and long they will wait
[Verse 2]
We had a beautiful magic love there
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
[Verse 3]
In dreams, I meet you in warm conversation
We both wake in lonely beds in different cities
And time is taking its sweet time erasing you
And you've got your demons, and darling, they all look like me
[Verse 4]
'Cause we had a beautiful magic love there
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
[Verse 5]
Distance, timing, breakdown, fighting
Silence, this train runs off its tracks
Kiss me, try to fix it, could you just try to listen?
Hang up, give up, for the life of us we can't get back
[Verse 6]
A beautiful magic love there
What a sad beautiful tragic, beautiful tragic, beautiful
[Verse 7]
What we had, a beautiful magic love there
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
[Verse 8]
We had a beautiful magic love there
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
