Magnificent Outpouring lyrics

It is said that all the good things

Must come to him who can pretend

He doesn't have to wait.

For as surely as the light of day

Must come to drive the night away,

The needles and the pins,

That's where the line begins.

With your magnificent outpouring

Of that old familiar story

That's been used a million times

To ease a million minds.

There are times when I have told you

That there must be two of us

To try to work things out.

But if I can't see you ev'ry day,

Then I must hide my thoughts away

And see you when I can,

And try to understand.

With your magnificent outpouring

Of that old familiar story

That's been used a million times

To ease a million minds.

So then let us treat our love like any game;

To fan the flames would really be a sin.

For as surely as the snow must fall,

I shall be waiting for your call,

Pretending it is spring

And you'll be mine again.

With your magnificent outpouring

Of that old familiar story

That's been used a million times

To ease a million minds.

With your magnificent outpouring

Of that old familiar story

That's been used a million times

To ease a million minds.
