Lyrics Kevin Devine

Kevin Devine

Magic Magnet

She's a magic magnet

I'm a ways away

I'm a moving target

She likes me anyway

She is technicolor

In a daydream swirl

I'm expanding circles

In a shrinking world

I can believe it

Nobody says I should

It just takes so long

To whitewash my wrongs

For good

[Chorus]

I watch the sun die

I watch the sun die

I watch the sun die

It's murder, every night

She's a magic magnet

I'm a wild wave

In an angry ocean

She tells me that's okay

She is heat and honey

In a choke caress

When she asks "What scares you?"

I say "Myself, I guess"

And I can believe it

Though I don't think I should

It drags you along

Til you're trapped in your songs for good

[Chorus] x2

It just takes so long

To whitewash my wrongs

For good

[Chorus] x2
