No more magic for the magic man.
what's done is done,
no more stunts to pull
they have dotted their i's and crossed their t's this time
the magic's gone, they're on to me
it's not my fault they were watching my hands instead of my feet

you should have seen me dance
the crowd went wild
and where grace fell short, vanity came through in style

Oh, I love the applause of the fans
Oh, I keep 'em smiling anyway I can
Til there's no more magic for the magic man

King of the Hill
Star of the Show
I was a shining example of just how far you could go
on top of the world you can't see things change
From these heights black and white begin to look like grey
blurring the right and the wrong
but no one knows who to blame
cause up here the villains and the heroes all look the same

Chorus

Had it in my hands
but I got lost
and can't start over
I reveled in the air
I have broken what I only meant to mend

There were mistakes, would I make them again?
what a price to pay to keep the magic of life my friend
there are regrets they tarnish the fame
most of all the burden my kids can't outlive my name

so one last charade
the greatest trick in my hat
father forgive me, this is my vanishing act

No more magic for the magic man
No more magic for the magic man
