And you can tell me anything 
that you want 
and I'll wait for you. 
Because I'll only be playing the part, 
that you want me to. 
And I can't believe that 
after what you did, 
still can't tell you no. 
My mind knows better, 
but my heart would never 
let me let you go. 

I try to stay as far as I can, 
away from you. 
But my magnetic heart 
just won't understand 
why I can't have you. 
So I try to keep my distance, 
but you're breaking my resistance. 
I can't explain why 
we're meant to stay apart, 
to my magnetic heart, 
my magnetic heart. 

You're pulling me in every direction, 
do you even care? 
I [bad word] to the edge of the world, 
you'd be standing there. 
And I'm giving in, 
when I let you win, 
and I just can't escape. 
Now I'm falling down, 
and you are not around, 
a broken heart can break. 

I try to stay as far as I can, 
away from you. 
But my magnetic heart 
just won't understand 
why I can't have you. 
So I try to keep my distance, 
but you're breaking my resistance. 
I can't explain why 
we're meant to stay apart, 
my magnetic heart, 
my magnetic heart. 

I can only take so much, 
you knock me down 
everytime that you build me up. 
And I don't know where you end 
and where I start. 
My magnetic heart.**1** 

I try to stay as far as I can, 
away from you. 
But my magnetic heart 
just won't understand 
why I can't have you.

but you're breaking my resistance. 
I can't explain why 
we're meant to stay apart. 
My magnetic heart, 
my magnetic heart.
