Sleight Of Hand Lyrics

Jonatha Brooke Sleight Of Hand

[Unraveling seemed the best way to say it. That lurking feeling that you can't keep up with the band....
Regular things aren't making sense. Summer's over, and you have to go home...but where is that?]

After the summer has gone
There's a time and a place and a meaning to everything
You never noticed before

Leaves start to change and you know
That the sound of the wheels on the road on the way to go home
It's the same but life's rearranged‚ something's unraveling
But something remains

I used to be something special
I used to be one of a kind
Now like everyone else‚ every man's for himself
And the magical band that played songs that you couldn't understand
It was all sleight of hand

Sooner or later it's clear
Every mystery leads to another but you're not alone
So you keep your love near when your heart breaks
You just say you understand

I used to be something special
I used to be one of a kind
Now like everyone else‚ every man's for himself
And the magical band that played songs that you couldn't understand
It was all sleight of hand

After the summer is gone
There's a time and a place and a meaning to everything
You never noticed before the unraveling
You just say you understand
