Lou Reed : Magic & Loss 05 Magician (Internally)

Live in concert : Lou Reed. Recorded at Bray Studios March 18th 1992 From VHS. Magician, Magician take me upon your wings, and gently roll the clouds away I’m sorry, so sorry I have no incantations only words to help sweep me away I want some magic to sweep me away I want some magic to sweep me away I want to count to five turn around and find myself gone Fly me through the storm and wake up in the calm Release me from this body from this bulk that moves beside me Let me leave this body far away I’m sick of looking at me I hate this painful body that disease has slowly worn away Magician take my spirit inside I’m young and vital Inside I’m alive, please take me away So many things to do, it’s too early for my life to be ending For this body, to simply rot away I want some magic to keep me alive I want a miracle, I don’t want to die I’m afraid that if I go to sleep I’ll never wake I’ll no longer exist I’ll close my eyes and disappear and float into the mist Somebody, please hear me my hand can’t hold a cup of coffee My fingers are weak, things just fall away Inside I’m young and pretty too many things unfinished My very breath taken away Doctor you’re no magician and I am no believer I need more than faith can give me now I want to believe in miracles not just belief in numbers I need some magic to take me away I want some magic to sweep me away I want some magic to sweep me away Visit on this starlit night replace the stars the moon the light, the sun’s gone Fly me

    Lainey, I always told you about Lou..
    Perhaps Doc Pomus’s Magic will inform your loss, too
    WE’RE ALL THINKING OF YOU, including people reading these comments.. X

    One of my two favorite albums. The other is his Berlin album. It’s like he in the room with you singing to you as only a friend would.

    all together we stand, up on our feet we stand, along with your friend, on the way to magic
