Tried to conjure up friends, but they went away.

Said, I'll make an incantation that will make my troubles just fade.

But what was I trying to pull out of my hat?

'Cause I was just lying about the life I had.



And where is the magic that holds the sky up

And makes me look upward whenever it rains?

And where is the feeling that fills my life up?

To tell you, I don't think it stayed.



Now I don't have the magic to fix what was broken.

And why is that? Was it what I've done or what I've spoken?

It's hard to see past what my mind is telling me

But sooner or later I'll find what to believe.



Where is the magic that holds the sky up

And makes me look upward whenever it rains?

And where is the feeling that fills my life up?

To tell you, I don't think it stayed.



And is this magic real?

Did I make it exist?

Well, I would strike a deal

To just be where it is.



Where is the magic that holds the sky up

And makes me look upward whenever it rains?

And where is the feeling that fills my life up?

To tell you, I don't think it stayed.
