A  lot  of  tears  a  lot  of  hate  there  it  goes  all  the  magic  but  that＇s  alright

And  it＇s  her  on  the  phone  pretending  everything  is  just  tragic

i＇ve  been  counting  the  years  trying  to  fake  my  way  all  around  it  and  get  along

but  she  was  great  when  she  was  great

i  remember  the  kick  1956  was  just  magic  and  came  undone

watch  him  yearning  for  the  throne  back  in  1969  with  a  habit  but  that＇s  alright

cause  he  was  great  when  he  was  great

but  then  again  you  got  me  wrong  cause  you  don＇t  have  to  worry  what＇s  on  my  mind

i＇ve  been  staring  at  the  clock  waiting  to  be  part  of  the  magic

i  guess  at  least  i  got  a  place  to  be  in  between  a  shot  and  a  dream

but  we  were  great  when  we  were  great
