As If By Magic - La Roux

Emerging from my world

Imagine living in a box

And I won’t come out

Until I’ve broken all the locks

Slurring all my words

Until something sticks

But in this smoky universe

My mind keeps playing tricks

And although you’re the only home I know

As if by magic thoughts of you are gone

And now I’m keeping my head in the clouds

And it’s not so tragic if I don’t look down

Submerging from your world

And back into my bliss

A day rolled into one

Is burning on my lips

Blurring all your words

Until they don’t exist

And in a parallel universe

It’s me you can’t resist

And although you’re the only home I’ll ever know

As if by magic thoughts of you are gone

And now I’m keeping my head in the clouds

And it’s not so tragic if I don’t look down

(You say I’m a rose tinted lover come on)

(You know I’ll never love another)

(I won’t stay a lonely for long)
