[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Long handwritten note deep in your pocket
~#**************#~
Words, how little they mean when youre a little too late
~#**************#~
I stood right by the tracks, your face in a locket
~#**************#~
Good girls, hopeful theyll be and long they will wait
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
We had a beautiful magic love there
~#**************#~
What a sad, beautiful, tragic love affair
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
In dreams, I meet you in warm conversation
~#**************#~
We both wake in lonely beds, different cities
~#**************#~
And time is taking its sweet time erasing you
~#**************#~
And youve got your demons, and darling, they all look like me
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
‘Cause we had a beautiful magic love there
~#**************#~
What a sad, beautiful, tragic love affair
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Distance, timing
~#**************#~
Breakdown, fighting
~#**************#~
Silence, the train runs off its tracks
~#**************#~
Kiss me, try to fix it
~#**************#~
Could you just try to listen?
~#**************#~
Hang up, give up
~#**************#~
And for the life of us we cant get back
~#**************#~
[Breakdown]
~#**************#~
A beautiful, magic love there
~#**************#~
What a sad, beautiful, tragic
~#**************#~
Beautiful, tragic, beautiful
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
What we had, a beautiful magic love there
~#**************#~
What a sad, beautiful, tragic, love affair
~#**************#~
We had a beautiful magic love there
~#**************#~
What a sad, beautiful, tragic love affair
