Lyrics

I don’t want count the ways I want you
That would give away way too much
Lightning strikes when I’m above you
And I feel like I’m in its clutch

What do I do if I start to lose my grip
What do I do if I start to slip
There’s magic in these fingers always finding
Ah, but what if I lose my touch

And say what I feel, just to find
You’re just a figment of my mind

What if I get hurt, from feeling
Revealing what my soul’s been concealing
They never hit the hardened part
You know, you know, that’s what you realize

 What can I do when I feel lonely
What trick fills the emptiness inside
What form of clever misdirection
Proclaims there’s nothing here to hide

Slight of hand and charms of sight
Summon shadows of the night

What if I get hurt from feeling
Revealing what my soul’s been concealing
They never hit the hardened part

What if all this dirt I’ve been dealing
Is just over people’s pain I’ve been stealing
They only know the softest part

Never hit the hardest part
They never hit the hardened part
Never get the hardest part

What if I get hurt from feeling
Revealing what my soul’s been concealing
It suddenly seems a world apart

What if I get hurt from feeling
An underworld just breaks through the ceiling
The magic is gone
Just a broken wand
