Magic Love by The Brave Optimistic Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Descended from a distant line of winners
She cradles her successor, born last night
Their T’s C’s A’s and G’s are so congruent
Can’t help but think her proteins did just right
His body just the size to leave her comfort
Already a whole world for smaller kings
It seems to be that magic’s all imagined
I imagine that there is no greater thing
[Chorus 1]
Than magic love, come run through me
I could measure each fired synapse
But that magic love would still move me
Like a measured hand pulling rabbits from his hat
[Verse 2]
With oxytocin coursing through her body
Her pheromones, they keep me up at night
Tangent to her curves, my left hand holds her
I feel her pulse rate changing with my right
I’d brave the frozen pleistocene to have her
I’d feed her megafauna every night
Their fatty meats to keep us warm in winter
But I bet her epoch ass would still be tight
[spoken: Get it? Like pleistocene epoch?]
[Chorus 2]
Oh magic love, come run through me
I could measure each fired synapse
But that magic love would still move me
Like a measured hand pulling rabbits from his hat
[Bridge]
Oh magic love
Oh magic love
Oh magic love
Run through me
[Verse 3]
She's fading like the wistful leaves of autumn
One hates to think of death until it comes
We've had new cells ten times since I first met her
But her skin still feels the same to my hand's touch
She gazes one last time through heavy eyelids
So proud of all she's seen and all she's done
I'm sorry that I ever even met her
How can I live now knowing what I've lost
[Chorus 3]
Oh magic love, come run through me
I could measure each fired synapse
But that magic love would still move me
Like a measured hand pulling rabbits from his hat
Descended from a distant line of winners
She cradles her successor, born last night
Their T’s C’s A’s and G’s are so congruent
Can’t help but think her proteins did just right
His body just the size to leave her comfort
Already a whole world for smaller kings
It seems to be that magic’s all imagined
I imagine that there is no greater thing
[Chorus 1]
Than magic love, come run through me
I could measure each fired synapse
But that magic love would still move me
Like a measured hand pulling rabbits from his hat
[Verse 2]
With oxytocin coursing through her body
Her pheromones, they keep me up at night
Tangent to her curves, my left hand holds her
I feel her pulse rate changing with my right
I’d brave the frozen pleistocene to have her
I’d feed her megafauna every night
Their fatty meats to keep us warm in winter
But I bet her epoch ass would still be tight
[spoken: Get it? Like pleistocene epoch?]
[Chorus 2]
Oh magic love, come run through me
I could measure each fired synapse
But that magic love would still move me
Like a measured hand pulling rabbits from his hat
[Bridge]
Oh magic love
Oh magic love
Oh magic love
Run through me
[Verse 3]
She's fading like the wistful leaves of autumn
One hates to think of death until it comes
We've had new cells ten times since I first met her
But her skin still feels the same to my hand's touch

[Chorus 3]
Oh magic love, come run through me
I could measure each fired synapse
But that magic love would still move me
Like a measured hand pulling rabbits from his hat
