Close Up Magic
She’s lying there listening to an echo
He doesn’t care that her world is turning blue
Tape machine looping within you
Faster now than a revolution
She’s watching him like she watches trash TV
He doesn’t care that she watches on repeat
All her tears falling like the rain
All her love calling like an air raid
I’ll whisper it in
I’ll whisper it in your ear
It’s so quiet in here
Why can’t you hear?
Ooh let me whisper it in your ear
Come near
I’ll whisper it in your ear
Your ear
Ooh let me whisper it in your ear
Ahh your ear
Come near
Close up magic in here
If you could only hear
She’s moving closer to the cherry moon
Climbing up to get a better view
Halo rings all around you
Rounder than a revolution
(I’ll whisper it in)
I’m looking for a station
(I’ll whisper it in your ear)
Some kind of frequency
(It’s so quiet in here)
Get you on my wavelength
(Why can’t you hear?)
Radio receive me
Ooh let me whisper it in your ear
Come near
I’ll whisper it in your ear
Your ear
Ooh let me whisper it in your ear
Ahh your ear
Come near
Close up magic in here
If you could only hear
Ooh aah yeah
Close up magic in everything
Your voice like ink gets under the skin
Put your ear to the wall hear me sing
Keep listening ‘til your ears ring
I’m looking for a station
Some kind of frequency
Get you on my wavelength
Radio receive me
Close up
Magic
It’s real
It’s true
So near
In my room
