Found it in pictures on the screen

Through the pages that I'd read

Oh it infatuated me and I wanted it

Alive inside my fantasy

Played a love sick rhapsody

But then reality came and haunted it

And through every heartbreak

It got hard to keep the faith

But love is like magic

You gotta believe in it, even when it isn't there

I still feel it in the air

Cause love is like magic

And when it's gone away I know someday it'll come back again

Greet me like an old best friend

And when loneliness tries to make a home

I won't let this heart get turned to stone

Though I know how quick love can turn tragic

And even through despair, I still feel it in the air

Love is like magic

Got to taste it once or twice

Thought it would last, hoped it might

But I guess I was holding on too tight

Cause I lost it

As broken pieces scattered down

And buried themselves into the ground

I made sure every one of them was found

Before they got frosted

And through every heartbreak

It gets harder to keep the faith

But love is like magic

You gotta believe in it, even when it isn't there

I still feel it in the air

Cause love is like magic

And when it's gone away I know someday it'll come back again

Greet me like an old best friend

And when loneliness tries to make a home

I won't let this heart get turned to stone

Though I know how quick love can turn tragic

And even through despair, I still feel it in the air

Love is like magic

It's easier to give up and say I've had it

Throw the towel in the basket

Revert back to old habits, trying to mask it

But if I let my heart grow numb, I'll miss out on what's to come

Without warning, without asking

I'll find it in a simple action

You'll wrap me up inside your jacket

Cause love is like magic

Love is like magic, yeah

You just gotta believe, even when it isn't there

Love is like magic

You gotta believe in it, even when it isn't there

I still feel it in the air

Love is like magic

And when it's gone away I know someday it'll come back again

Greet me like an old best friend

And when loneliness tries to make a home

I won't let this heart get turned to stone

Though I know how quick love can turn tragic

And even through despair, I still feel it in the air

Love is like magic

Love is like magic

Though I don't know the time or place

I know it'll be worth the wait

Cause love is like magic
