Well I'm Up There Beside The Magic Man

And He Layed Some Tricks For Me

He Said You Do Need Help My Friend

I Whispered, Obviously



He Laid A Spread Of Jacks And Queens

And He Begged Me Take My Pick

But Every Face That Had Your Face

I Cried Out, I Am Sick



Chorus: Sick Of Hauling Your Love Around

Want To Run My Train Alone

But The Engine Tracks Straight Through Your Heart

And Weighs Me Like A Stone

Oh It's A Hard Love To Love You It Takes Up All My Time

Having You So Familiar Like Past Lives And Nursery Rhymes



So I Gave Away The Pictures And Your Golden Ring

And The Phone Calls You Sent Me And The Silver Birds That Sing

Then The Man He Told Me Something That Really Brought Me Down

Your Things Were Blown Away It's True But You Were Still In Town

Chorus:

The Magician Left A Message, It Flashes When I Hide

Accept The Chains Of Loving,

Accept The Rails Remove Yourself From Her Side

Do Without Her Love



As I Lay Back In The Speeding Train, I Keep It By My Side

I Could Mail A Letter To You But I Still Have My Pride
