Magic

When I was young I thought that stars were made for wishing on

And every hole deep in a tree might hide a leprechaun

Old houses all had secret rooms, if one could find the key

I do believe in magic, I believe.

Chorus:

Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain

And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again

Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave

I do believe in magic, I believe.


Growing up the grown-ups said someday I'd wake to find

That magic's just a childish dream I'd have to leave behind

Like clothes that would no longer fit and toys that I'd ignore

I'd not believe in magic anymore.


Chorus


When I grew up I learned again, that much to my surprise

Magic did not fade away, it took a new disguise

A child, a friend, a smile, a song, the courage to stand tall

I do believe in magic, after all.


Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain

And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again

Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave

I do believe in magic, 

For love's the greatest magic, 

I do believe in magic, I believe.
