lyrics

MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION


VERSE
HE FUMBLES THROUGH THE EMPTY BOTTLES FOR A DIRTY COFFEE CUP
A 12-PACK HELPED HIM SLEEP LAST NIGHT, A POT OF COFFEE OUGHT TO WAKE HIM UP
AS THE SUN PEEKS THROUGH THE WINDOW HE STARTS ANOTHER DAY
HE STOPS AND SPEAKS HER NAME AS IF SHE’D NEVER GONE AWAY

VERSE
HE STARES INTO THE LOVING EYES OF HER PORTRAIT ON THE WALL
OF THE DAYS BEFORE SHE LEFT HIM, PRIDE COMES BEFORE A FALL
HE REMEMBERS HOW HE HELD HER ON THE DAY SHE SAID GOODBYE
NOW SHE’S ONLY IN A PORTRAIT AND THAT PAINTS ALREADY DRY

CHORUS
SHE’S THE OBJECT OF HIS LIFE, HIS MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION
AND SHE’D STILL BE HIS LOVING WIFE IF THE PAST WERE HIS POSESSION
BUT FATE HAS CHEATED LOVE, HER LIFE HAS GONE A NEW DIRECTION
AND SHE WILL NOW, FOREVER BE HIS MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION

VERSE
THEY SAY SHE’S DOIN BETTER, SHE’S TURNED HER LIFE AROUND
AND THERE’S ANOTHER MAN BESIDE HER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN
IF SHE SHOULD ASK ABOUT HIM, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
YOU CAN SAY HE’S ’ GETTING BY THESE DAYS , THROUGH THE BOTTLES AND THE TEARS

MUSICAL INTERLUDE

CHORUS
SHE’S THE OBJECT OF HIS LIFE, HIS MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION
AND SHE’D STILL BE HIS LOVING WIFE IF THE PAST WERE HIS POSESSION
BUT FATE HAS CHEATED LOVE, HER LIFE HAS GONE A NEW DIRECTION
AND SHE WILL NOW, FOREVER BE HIS MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION

BRIDGE
HE THINKS ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES AND THE SWEET LOVE THEY ONCE HAD
BUT MEMORIES ARE ALL THAT’S LEFT OF A GOOD LOVE GONE SO BAD
\
CHORUS
SHE’S THE OBJECT OF HIS LIFE, HIS MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION
AND SHE’D STILL BE HIS LOVING WIFE IF THE PAST WERE HIS POSESSION
BUT FATE HAS CHEATED LOVE, HER LIFE HAS GONE A NEW DIRECTION
AND SHE WILL NOW, FOREVER BE HIS MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION
