Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down the square
Where an old magician sits in silence
In his wooden chair
It's been seven weeks since he performed his magic show
To an almost-empty hall down by the shore
His young boys' eyes followed every single movement
Every word and each surprise
And his little hands were moving as his father's do
He knew that someday, he would do it too
[Chorus]
Every night, we have our little dinner
Then I ask, "Please show me one more time
This magic trick that mama used to love
That made her laugh"
[Verse 2]
It's been seven years since she left us on this rainy day
And suddenly disappeared
Like a twisted magic trick that rips your heart apart
From three, you go to two, and then it's dark
[Chorus]
Oh, every night, when we have our little dinner
Then you ask me for that sigh, ooh
And a tiny fire lights in me and in your eyes
I see your mother laughing in surprise
[Verse 3]
Seven years of learning how to live
Right from the start
One step at a time
Magic tricks are cool and real and often
Break your heart
