I’m back on the road
Sometimes I don’t know
It’s hard to make good sense of it all
When I have to roam
My mind’s back at home
Thinking of you there all alone

But we’re doing well
Somehow I can tell
I really don’t know
It’s something I feel
‘Cause we’ve been making it strong
Each day right along
Though we both hate being alone

It’s gotta be magic
We’re still in tune
There’s good loving
Midnight or noon
It’s gotta be magic
I know it’s true
‘Cause it’s still working
For me and you.

We keep saying goodbye
We keep on wondering why
Though we both know it just has to be
Oh, but honey the road
Can get to be such a load
You’re all that helps me make it I know

It’s gotta be magic
We’re still in tune
There’s good loving
Midnight or noon
It’s gotta be magic
I know it’s true
‘Cause it’s still working
For me and you…
