Now that the magic has gone (Joe Cocker)

Now That The Magic Has Gone

Album: Night Calls (1992)

In my life

I’ve seen sorrow

Heartache and pain

I’ve been burned by the sunshine

And drowned in pouring rain

Had too many lovers

And enough love

I’ve been trialed and convicted

For things I’m not guilty of

I was locked in a prison

Till you came and set me free

So how can you say

You’re no good for me

Now that the magic has gone

You just wanna walk away

Nothing left to say, anyway

Now that the magic has gone

There’s no sense in holding on

Baby now, now that the magic is gone

You know love can be tender

Love can be cruel

It can smile like an angel

While it treats you just like a fool

it captures and haunts you

Until you give in

And it stats the dice against you

in a game you never can win

Just when I was thinking

Maybe luck was here with me

You’re telling me it’s over

Say it’s time for breaking free

Now that the magic has gone

You just wanna walk away

Nothing left to say

Anyway baby

Now that magic has gone

There’s no sense in holding on

Baby now

Now that the magic has gone

I won’t try to hold you down

My mind tells me let go

But my heart keeps asking how

There’s no prices for the loser

Only the winner takes the purse

Some say that love is a blessing

But to me it’s just a curse

Now that the magic has gone

You just wanna walk away

Nothing left to say

Ain’t it babe

Now that the magic has gone

There’s no sense in holding on

Baby, now that the magic has gone

Now that the magic has gone

You just wanna walk away

Nothing left to say

Night calls (Joe Cocker)

NIGHT CALLS

The night gang started walking
With a mile of southern road
As I watched
I’ve got to thinking
You ain't never coming home
I looked out of nowhere
There was nobody at all
To get me help
To get through to you
I'm here making night calls

Night calls
Making night calls
Night calls
Making night calls

I tried too hard to reach you
But you must be moving fast
All my hopes about the future
Will just live on, into the past
You know that it ain't easy
And the twilight starts to fade
Sittin’ here
In the chill of the morning
Thinking of the plans we made

Oh, night calls
Making night calls
Let it ring
Oh, night calls
Making night calls
Oh, night calls
Give up those night calls

True Love (Glenn Frey)

True Love

Out of the blue

Out of the night

You came along and you changed my life

I’m feelin’ things I swear I never felt before

Yes I am, baby

’Cause you looked at me

That’s all it took

You read my heart like an open book

And it was true love right from the start

It was true love straight from my heart

It was true love

There ain’t no doubt about it, baby

True love and I can’t live without it

Before I met you, baby I was alone

Thought I was happy livin’ on my own

But now I realize

This world was made for two

Like me and you

With you by my side everything’s fine

There ain’t no mountain, sugar

We can’t climb

We’ve got a true love

That’s all we need

Is a true love

It’s got a lifetime guarantee

It’s a true love

It’s so hard to find, baby

True love

It puts your heart on the line

True love

Makes every day a little brighter

True love

Make every burden just a little lighter

True love

It’ll make you be a better man

If you had true love you’d understand

Out of the blue out of the night

You came along

And you changed my life

You got me feelin’ things

I swear I never felt before

’Cause you life me up

You make me strong

You give me love that lasted all night long

And it’s a true love right from the start

It’s a true love comin’ straight from my heart

True love

Need you here beside me, baby

True love

Need your love to guide me

True love

I can’t deny this feelin’

No, no matter how hard I try

True love

I just know what I feel

And it’s true love

She’s my baby, she’s my girl

Said she’s my life

Oh she changed my world

She’s my buttercup, oh fill me up

Talkin’ ’bout love, talkin’ ’bout love

It’s got to be a true love

True love (Repeat and fade)

Living right (Glenn Frey)

Living Right

I’m outside

Runnin’ in the mornin’ sun

No matter what it takes

I know I’m gonna get it done

Pushin’ up the hill

Fightin’ through the pain

Everything to lose

Everything to gain

I know I’m on my way

I’m on my way to number one

Feelin’ good, getting’ tight

‘Cause I’m livin’ right, livin’ right

Up in the mornin’, asleep at night

I’m livin’ right, livin’ right

I was livin’ in the past

Holdin’ on to yesterday

I knew it wouldn’t last

Had to find a better way

I had to see the truth

I had to face the facts

I’m givin’ somethin’ up

I’m getting’ somethin’ back

I know I’m getting’ close

A little closer every day

I look at the future

The future looks bright

‘Cause I’m livin’ right, livin’ right

Out of the darkness and into the light

I’m livin’ right, livin’ right

Livin’, livin’ right

You’re never gonna make it

Stayin’ on the road you’re on, no

The medicine you’re takin’

Isn’t gonna last you long

If you really want it

Man, you’ve gotta want it bad, so bad

But nothin’ feels better

Than reachin’ for the top

Once you get started

You ain’t never gonna wanna stop

I’m outside

Runnin’ in the mornin’ sun

No matter what it takes

I know I’m gonna get it done

I finally took a chance

I never thought with feelin’ bad

I’m into feelin’ good

Im’ goin’ all the way

All the way to number one

Out of the darkness and into the light

I’m livin’ right, livin’ right

Look at the future

The future looks bright

‘Cause I’m livin’ right, livin’ right

Livin’ oh yes I am

Livin’ oh yes I am

Livin’ oh livin’, livin’ right

Some kind of blues (Glenn Frey)

SOME KIND OF BLUE

Sunny day, two people walkin’

Arm in arm the way lovers do

Lookin’ back I see them talkin’

So many things remind me of you

I always thought we’d be together

I never dreamed we’d drift apart

Here I am drivin’ home to no one

To spend the night with my broken heart

Chorus:

I’m some kind of blue without you

Don’t know what to do about you

From the minute you said we were through

I’ve been some kind of blue

I lay in bed and stare at the ceilin’

I think of you walkin’ out the door

I can’t describe the sadness I’m feelin’

I just know love don’t live here no more

I’m some kind of blue without you

Don’t know what to do without you

It’s out of my hands

You made other plans

But I’m still in love with you

And I’m some kind of blue

Sunny day, two people walkin’

Arm in arm the way lovers do

Hand in hand, laughin’ and talkin’

So many things remind me of you

(Chrous)

Some kind of blue (Repeat)
