Lou Reed - Magician (Internally) Lyrics
Magician Magician, take me upon your wingsAnd gently roll the clouds awayI'm sorry, so sorry, I have no incantationsOnly words to help sweep me awayI want some magic to sweep me awayI want some magic to sweep me awayI want to count to fiveTurn around and find myself goneFly me through the storm and wake up in the calmRelease me from the bodyFrom this bulk that moves beside meLet me leave this body far awayI'm sick of looking at meI hate this painful bodyThat disease has slowly worm awayMagician, take my spiritInside I'm young and vitalInside I'm alive, please take me awaySo many things to do, it's too earlyFor my life to be endingFor this body to simply rot awayI want some magic to keep me aliveI want a miracle, I don't want to dieI'm afraid that if I go to sleep I'll never wakeI'll no longer existI'll close my eyes and disappear and float into the mistSomebody please hear meMy hand can't hold a cup of coffeeMy fingers are weak, things just fall awayInside I'm young and prettyToo many things unfinishedMy very breath taken awayDoctor you're no magicianAnd I am no believerI need more than faith can give me nowI want to believe in miraclesNot just belief in numbersI need some magic to take me awayI want some magic to sweep me awayI want some magic to sweep me awayVisit on this starlit nightReplace the stars, the moon, the light, the sun's goneFly me through this storm and wake up in the calmI fly right through this stormAnd I wake up in the calm
