Lyrics When The Spell Is Broken - Bonnie Raitt

When The Spell Is Broken

When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
How you ever gonna keep her now?
You can’t cry if you don’t know how
When the spell is broken
When the spell is broken
All the joy is gone from her face
Welcome back to the human race
How long can the flame
Of love remain?
When you curse and fight
And never see alike
Or hear life spoken
When the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
(When the spell is broken)
When the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
All the magic and your ways and schemes
All your lies come and tear at your dreams
When the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
When the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
Now you’re handing her that same old line
It’s just straws in the wind this time
When love has died
There’s none starry-eyed
No kiss, no tears
No farewell souvenirs
Not even a token, when the spell …
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Ya can’t cry if you don’t know how)
Don’t swear your heart
From the very start
Love letters you wrote
Well, they’re pushed back down your throat
And leave you choking, when the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
(When the spell is broken)
Whoa, When the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
(When the spell is broken)
When the spell is broken
(When the spell is broken)
(When the spell is broken)
Spell, When the spell, when the spell, when the spell…
(When the spell is broken)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
Broken…
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
Broken…
(You can’t cry if you don’t know how)
When the spell… is broken
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
When the spell…
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
Spell is broken…
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Can't cry if you don’t know when the spell is broken)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Can't cry if you don’t know when the spell is broken)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Can't cry if you don’t know when the spell is broken)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Can't cry if you don’t know when the spell is broken)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
(Can't cry if you don’t know when the spell is broken)
(Can't cry if you don’t know how)
