Alchemical Romance

I didn't know you were a wizard, I guess that explains the hat
and those silly words you whispered that have put me in a trance

I didn't believe in magic even as a little kid
But if this trick ain't magic, I don't know what magic is

You told me that you liked me and I didn't bat an eye
You told me that you needed me and I swept it to the side
But then you told me that you loved me, now no one's as shocked as I
That it's those words (in that order) that’s transformed this stubborn mind

I didn't know you were a witch, I guess that explains the cat
and the reason it said "bless you" as I sneezed as it walked past

I didn't believe in magic but you cast it on me quick
You're my romantic alchemist, too charming to resist
No, I didn't believe in magic or in you until I did
You're wicked and familiar, I'm getting used to this

You told me that you liked me and I didn't bat an eye
You told me that you needed me and I swept it to the side
But then you told me that you loved me, now no one's as shocked as I
That it's those words (in that order) that transformed this stubborn mind

I've had a moment of lucidity
This spell has waned enough for me to wriggle from its grip on me
Ever since they cast it I have struggled with my vision, the
Only thing I see is their face
Quick, while there's still time I need to find and cast the counter-curse
I'll never have a chance again if they find out this didn't work
I found their spellbook in amongst their potions, robes, and cowls
I've got no chance to practice it, I need to cast it now…

Reason, logic, rationale… protect me from this magic spell
Reason, logic, rationale… protect me from this magic spell
Reason, logic, rationale… protect me from this magic spell
Reason, logic, rationale… protect me from this magic spell

I didn't know you had a power like this
I didn't believe in supernatural gifts
But My Romantic Alchemist is too quick, I feel tricked
And haven't been the same since

Since reason's not a reason when your heart does not believe it
And there ain’t no shot for rationale when dealing with a magic spell
That works as well as that one where

You told me that you liked me and I didn't bat an eye
You told me that you needed me and I swept you to the side, side
And then you rolled some sort of supernatural 20 on your die
That made Those Words (in that order) hit before I changed my mind
