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 you 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)
Many rivers to cross But I can`t seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will That keeps me alive I`ve been licked, washed up for years and I merely survive because of my pride.
And this loneliness won`t leave me alone It`s such a drag to be on your own My woman left and she didn't say why Well I guess I have to try. Many rivers to cross but just where to begin I`m playing for time There`ll be times I find myself thinking Of committing some dreadful crime.
I`ve got many rivers to cross But I can`t seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will That keeps me alive I`ve been licked, washed up for years and, I merely survive because of my pride.
