Lyrics[]

[Verse 1]
To run away use the power of the magic
To change your mind
The way you looked so tragic
To satisfy the fire that burns inside you
Just let in win, I'll always go along with you

[Pre Chorus 1]
Get away get by with the power of the magic
Maybe it'll bring on the silence
You'll keep on loving the power of the magic
You with the timeless and silence
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

[Chorus]
You walk in the street
Along silent trees the power of magic
The wind go around
It's making a sound of you loving magic

[Verse 2]
It's night of change, to keep your satisfaction
Life is so strange, a lot of combinations
Don't waste your time but let it come inside you
It's another world, that baby will surround you

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You'll keep your love alive
With the power of magic
Oh baby this is the last string
You'll keep your world
With the power of the magic
This is how you win all your heartache
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
