The Magic Numbers
"Goodnight"

i long to feel the warmth and the sadness
as the sun reappears through the break of dawn

like a note, black and white
when you dance you will learn
when you learn you'll return
when you turn you will look
when you look you will have what you own

to find a resting place, from shadow
of the love we once erased, means we hide no more

like a note, black and white
when you dance you will learn
when you learn you'll return
when you turn you will look
when you look you will have what you own

but i must never walk you home
for there are many things i've learned

goodnight my lover
i'm thinking of her
but i must never let you know

and all through the night, like a rag doll
i could hear her move, i could hear you call

like a note, black and white
when you dance you will learn
when you learn you'll return
when you turn you will look
when you look you will have what you own

but i must never walk you home
for there are many things i've learned

goodnight my lover
i'm thinking of her

but i must never let you know

sing a song for me, now baby
sing a song for me, my love
sing a song for me, now darling
sing a song for me, my love
sing a song for me, now baby
sing a song for me, my love
sing a song for me, now darling

tonight I know, you're letting go
and there are many things i learned

tonight i'll be the one that had to let you go
tonight i'll be the first that had to let you know
it hurts so much to see you
now the fear stands between you

and tonight i'll be the one that had to let you go
for tonight i'll be the first that had to let you know
does it hurts so much to see you
now the fear stands between you

and tonight i'll be the one that had to let you go
for tonight i'll be the first that had to let you know
and it hurts so much to see you
now the fear stands between you

and tonight i'll be the one that had to let you go
and tonight i'll be the first that had to let you know

goodnight my lover
i'm thinking of her
but i must never let you know

she said: goodnight my lover
i'm thinking of her
but i must never let you know
