Magic Lyrics

Lyric discussion by raulmr 

Cover art for Magic lyrics by Coldplay

It's very simple, it's about a break up: "And I just got broken, broken into two"

and the singer can't get over the other person: "And I can't get over, can't get over you"

and the singer doesn't want anyone else: "I don't, no, I don't, no, I don't, no, I don't want anybody else but you"

and he believes someday they'll be together again: "And if you were to ask me after all that we've been through "Still believe in magic?" Well yes, I do. Of course I do"

Song Meaning

I think the last verse is saying that after all the turmoil that they've been through he still believes in the "magic" that is love as a whole.

I don't necessarily believe he means they'll get back together.

Disagree. I see "And I just got broken, broken into two" and his request to his lover "cut me into two" as him thinking he's found his "better half" or "person who completes him."
