When The Spell Is Broken-Richard Thompson

When the spell is broken When the spell is broken How you ever gonna keep her now You can't cry if you don't know how When the spell is broken When the spell is broken All the joy is gone from her face Welcome back to the human race How long can the flame of love remain When you curse and fight and never see Like or hear like spoken When the spell is broken Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how When the spell is broken Can't cry if you don't know how Oh, when the spell is broken All your magic and your ways and schemes All your lies come and tear at your dreams When the spell is broken Can't cry if you don't know how When the spell is broken Now you're handing her that same old line It's just straws in the wind this time When love has died, there's none starry-eyed No kiss, no tears, no farewell souvenirs Not even a token, when the spell is broken Don't swear your heart from the very start Love letters you wrote Are pushed back down your throat And leave you choking When the spell is broken When the spell, when the spell, when the spell is broken When the spell is broken, when the spell is broken When the spell, when the spell, when the spell is broken When the spell is broken, when the spell is broken Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how You can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how Can't cry if you don't know how
