Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In my life, I've seen sorrow
Heartache and pain
I've been burned by the sunshine
Been drowned in the pourin' rain
Had too many lovers and not enough love
I've been tried and convicted for things I'm not guilty of
[Verse 2]
I was locked in a prison till you came and set me free
So how can you say you're no good for me?
[Verse 3]
Now that the magic has gone, you just wanna walk away
Nothing left to say anyway
Now that the magic has gone, there's no sense in holdin' on
Baby, now, now that the magic has gone
[Verse 4]
You know love can be tender, love can be cruel
It can smile like an angel while it treats you just like a fool
It captures and haunts you until you give in
And it stacks the dice against you in a game you can never win
[Verse 5]
Just when I was thinkin'
Maybe luck was here with me
You tell me it's over
Say it's time for breakin' free
[Verse 6]
Now that the magic has gone, you just wanna walk away
Nothing left to say anyway, baby
Now that the magic has gone, there's no sense in holdin' on
Baby, now, now that the magic has gone
[Verse 7]
I won't try to hold you down
My mind tells me, let go
But my heart keeps askin' how
[Verse 8]
There's no prizes for the loser
Only the winner takes the purse
Some say that love's a blessing
But to me it's just a curse
[Verse 9]
Now that the magic has gone, you just wanna walk away
Nothing left to say anyway
Now that the magic has gone, there's no sense in holdin' on
Baby, now that the magic is gone
[Verse 10]
(Now that the magic has gone)
You just wanna walk away
Nothing left to say
