Текст пісні
Used to watch the floor
Things would disappear
Reappear in drawers
All folded, clean and clear
Someone worked the hours
Someone paid the cost
I just played my games
Never counted what was lost
Dirty pile by my bed
Gone by afternoon
Never asked how, never asked why
Just a kid believin' in the moon
Someone worked the hours
Someone bent their back
I just played my games
Never thought to ask
Now I'm bent over the machine
Stains that just won't quit
Searchin' for the matching pair
In this tangled pit
Mama's hands, they knew the way
Mine just fumble through the day
Washer hums its lonesome tune
Dryer spins the truth
Magic lived in her hands
Magic lived right there
She worked while I just played around
Didn't know, didn't care
Now I carry it alone
Floor's still dirty
Drawer's still bare
No magic left
When no one's there
