If you believe in the power of magic,

I can change your mind

Clouds got in the way
Dm
We gave it up in a moment of madness

Don't answer me, don't break the silence

Don't let me win

Don't answer me, stay on your island

Run away and hide from everyone

Can you change the things we've said and done?

If you believe in the power of magic,

Just pretend it's me

It ain't enough that we meet as strangers
Am
I can't set you free

So will you turn your back forever
