Don't know what happened, we had the magic for awhile
But now it seems as though we hide the pain beneath a smile
We keep on pretending that things are gonna change
But we both know things will never be the same

Chorus:
It all seems so tragic
When you've lost the magic
And you wonder how you'll ever go on
So even though the love is ending
You just go on pretending
Because what do you do, when the magic is gone?

So we struggle on, neither wants to say goodbye
We say "I love you" and turn away, not sure the other will reply
We keep pretending this is something we can fix
But there's no more magic in our bag of tricks

Chorus:
It all seems so tragic
When you've lost the magic
And you wonder how you'll ever go on
So even though the love is ending
You just go on pretending
Because what do you do, when the magic is gone?
