Don't play with magic
It's hard to find
One bad move will leave you behind
Don't say they're plastic
Just cause they're trying
World's been against ya all of your life
You're so real oh my
But you deal in borrow time
And it's too late now
To hold your hand
Well if I wanted to
It's play by numbers
When I'm around
Quick to pick me up and put me back down
Don't play with magic
Eyes on the ground
Been seeing black cats all over town
You're so real oh my
But you deal in borrow time
And it's too late now
So understand
That all I wanted was you
Well love's a fickle thing
Could be a gift or a curse
And honestly I don't know what's worse
Don't play with magic
Don't be denied
Second chance you'll make it right
Don't play with magic
You're gonna burn
After the third degree you learn
You're so real oh my
But you deal in borrow time
And it's too late now
So understand
That all I wanted was you
So understand
I really wanted you too
