In League with the Classics

For all the stories that I wrote
And the ones I failed to write
The story only you could tell
Still keeps me up at night
The one of modern alchemy
Of magic and machinery
A tribute to a century
A missing rhyme for irony

It could have been in league with the classics
It could have won a Nobel Prize
It could have been in league with the legends
For real, true story
But in another life

Maybe another time
Without missing rhymes

Of all the saddest words I know
Flowing from my pen
The ones that sweep me back to you are these
It might have been
Magic or machinery
Alchemy or just chemistry
The love song of the century
With a missing rhyme for you

We could have been in league with the classics
We could have read between the lines
We could have married myth and magic
For real, true story
We could have been in league with the classics
We could have loved above the lines
We could have lived like fucking legends
For real, true story
But in another life
