about

We Had Magic, the second single taken from LAU's forthcoming debut album, finds the songwriter and singer in a more retrospective mood than the previous offering.

In the same tradition of Ultravox 'Dancing With Tears In My Eyes' or Robyn classic 'Dancing On My Own', the song (produced by French Producer Ends 84) describes the end of a relationship, at the beat of big snares, sharp synth leads and a meaty arpeggiated bass line.

We Had Magic depicts the exact moment when we realize there's nothing else you can say or do to make the other person stay.

Perhaps the most intimate output to date from LAU, this is the making of a future classic.

[LYRICS]

I can’t imagine
A life without you no oh no
Yes we had magic
At least that’s what most people thought

All I do is write and all I do is call my friends
But do they even know that….

I can’t really let you go
And I don’t wanna think about it anymore
We could have seen the world
But you don’t love me anymore

I can’t pretend that it didn’t happen no oh no (it did happen)
Yeah it was tragic
You’re in love with someone I know

All I do is write and all I do is call my friends
But do they even know that….

I can’t really let you go
And I don’t wanna think about it anymore
We could have seen the world
But you don’t love me anymore

Doesn’t matter anyway,
I wanted love, but it’s ok
Now I see that this is over

I can’t really let you go
And I don’t wanna think about it anymore

I can’t really let you go
And I don’t wanna think about it anymore
We could have seen the world
But you don’t love me anymore
