Overture (04:40)
Patrick Wolf • The Magic Position
It's wonderful what a smile can hide
If the teeth shine bright and it's nice and wide
It's so magical all you can keep inside
And if you bury it deep no one can find a thing, no

So come on now, open wide, open up now
Don't you think it's time

To look back at that boy on his way to school
Such a heavy heart, such a heavy jewel hiding Something that one day he'll sell
But now if no one shows, no one tells a thing, no

So come on love, open wide, open up now
Don't you think it's time

Now after all these years you are at last opening was it
Worth all that war just to win
So caught up in the speed of the days in your sin
Don't forget how the story begins no
Don't forget now

Now I'm seeing all your lovers and enemies
They've been turning their keys so full of need
All trying to see that sure you keep
What makes it shine, what makes it mine
But I don't care, no

Just come on now, open wide, open up now
There's so much love for what you'll find
But what will you find

Now after all these years you are at last opening
Was it worth all that war just to win

If it was can you take me back to where it begins
Come and take me back to where it begins
Come and take me back to where it begins
Come on, open wide and let some light in

Let us in
Let us in

The Magic Position (03:53)
Patrick Wolf • The Magic Position
So let the people talk
It's Monday morning walk
Right past the fabulous mess we're in
It's gonna be a beautiful day
So do the bluebirds sing
As I take your hand
And you take my kiss
'Cause out of all the people I've known
The places I've been
The songs that I have sung
The wonders I've seen
Now that the dreams are all coming true
Who is the one that leads me on through

It's you
Who puts me in the magic position, darling now
You put me in the magic position
To live, to learn, to love in the major key

The major key
The major key
The major key

And I know how you've hurt
And been dragged through the dirt
But c'mon get back up
It's time to live
And as you give your love to me
I'm gonna keep it carefully
It's deep in the treasure chest, below my breast
'Cause out of all the people I've known
The places I've been
The songs that I have sung
The wonders I've seen
Now that the dreams are all coming true
Who is the one that leads me on through

It's you
Who puts me in the magic position, darling now
You put me in the magic position, darling so
Let me put you in the magic position, darling cause
I'm singing in the, the major key

The major key
The major key
The major key

Let me put you in the...
The major key

And just get yourself back into the ring,

Bluebells (05:17)
Patrick Wolf • The Magic Position
Lucy, remember
The smell of that fall
The fires of fungus
And the rotting leaves

I fell off the wagon
Into your arms
Into this long month of sundays

And you were my husband
My wife, my heroin
Now this is our final December

Now deep in a forest
Losing all though of spring
And nothing can help me remember
And I'm going nowhere fast
A darker day has holed at last
Deep in a dream I set the calmness to spinning

And your love has come too late
Away from the garden gate
Wake me up when the blue bells are ringing

Now that it's over after all that we had
A river runs through the rafters down, down, down
Does it leave me sleeping? Dreaming only of spring
The phone rings out and I remember
But I'm going nowhere fast
A darker day has holed at last
Deep in this dream I set the calmness to spinning

And your love has come too late
Now wave to the garden gate
Wake me up when the blue bells are ringing
Ringing, ringing, ringing
Wanna hear them ringing, my love
Wanna hear them ringing
Ringing...

Magpie (03:57)
Patrick Wolf • The Magic Position
PATRICK: magpie, was it you who stole the wedding ring? or what other thieving bird would steal such hope away? magpie, I am lost among the hinterland, caught among the bracken and the fern and the boys who have no name

MARIANNE: there's no name for us

PATRICK: still we sing

MARIANNE: and still we sing. little boy, little boy, lost and blue, listen now, let me tell you what to do. you can run on, run along, alone or home between the knees of her; all among her bracken and her ferns and the boy will have a name

BOTH: we will sing

MARIANNE: and we will sing

MARIANNE: one for sorrow

PATRICK: two for joy

MARIANNE: three for a girl

PATRICK: four for a boy

MARIANNE: five for silver

PATRICK: six for gold

MARIANNE: seven for a secret, never to be told

Augustine (04:19)
Patrick Wolf • The Magic Position
As the belltower blocks the sunlight
All the seeds in our garden fight
To break and blossom all to be adored
And look your skirt is torn
And there's blood on my sheets
Here comes a long arm of the law
Fist tight, banging on the door
And knocking me down on it's weight
And I let him in

As I pass out into a dream
Whooping cranes and woodland beings
Great white wings beating
In an attic, in a house, in the dead of night
Singing, oh! My Augustine, Augustine!
Oh! Is this forever, ever? Oh, oh
Sweet Augustine, Augustine
What does this mean for us?

Does it mean that I can never change my ways?
And that's why, love, you shouldn't stay
Still you will and love me
Like a mother, or a maid bringing you down, down
Down on your brazen knees
Watering the worms and the weeds
Thinking, why does love leave me so damn cold?
And I'm getting old
And is this what it should be
Well... Is it?

Oh! My Augustine, Augustine!
Oh! Is this forever, ever? Oh, oh
Sweet Augustine, Augustine
Do we kill this one tonight?

And now come the tears, heavy and hot
It becomes clear, this is all we got
As I hold you to my bed
Like a cancer or a curse
Now, be my loving nurse
As we fall back into the impossible dream

Get Lost (03:17)
Patrick Wolf • The Magic Position
let's go my love

we could go to the cinema
big effects and big name stars
we could go to that private view
but darling these days my favorite view is you

let's just bend the invitation
leave our bikes down at the station
and lose all sense of direction
im going to get lost with you

yes we will run
come get lost with me
slip away discreetly
you're my love so come get lost with me
we will run 'til empty.

we could stay here 'til closing time
but the drinks are flat
and the price is a crime
we could dance 'til our feet turn red
but the beat's so boring
and i'd rather be home in our bed

this town's skipping like a record
reruns get me so bored
so with a nothing we can afford
we're gonna get lost again

yeah we will run
come get lost with me
slip away discreetly
you're my love so come get lost with me
we will run 'til empty-let's go.
