First time it's rained since I came to the city Seemed like a good time to write And even now as I look out my window Rain clouds are chasing the light They play games of magic in the night They play games of magic in the night Lately I've stayed with a lady from Denver She said to come by for a while Took me on down to a place by the river Carried me off on her smile We played games of magic all the while We played games of magic all the while I hope this letter finds you well I wrote to tell you about my change of plans I won't be home tomorrow night I'll be alright, I hope you'll only stay All of my life I've been looking for something But I guess you know me by now Searching for secrets and being the eternal child Playing games of magic all the while Playing games of magic all the while Playing games of magic all the while Playing games of magic all the while
