lyrics

Now that the party is over
no one is around.
We're sweeping up confetti
and pulling streamers down.
Wanted to go out with a bang
but you leave without a sound
now that The Magic is Over.

It's been seven years of tug-of-war
it's time we both let go.
You won't be trying to change me
I won't hold you back anymore.
It's time to put the light out,
call it a night and close the door
now that The Magic is Over.

No more waiting and hoping.
It's all out in the open.
We need to take some time.

Now that the Magic is Over
we can try it out as friends.
I won't answer to anyone
I can be myself again.
What we had was beautiful
but this is where it ends
now that the Magic is Over.

What we had was beautiful
but this is where it ends.

Now that the Magic is Over.
Now that the Magic is Over.
