I am made from the dust of the stars And the oceans flow in my veins Here I hide in the heart of the city Like a stranger coming out of the rain
The evening plane rises up from the runway Over constellations of light I look down into a million houses And wonder what you're doing tonight
If I could wave my magic wand I'd make everything all right
I'm not one to believe in magic But I sometimes have a second-sight I'm not one with a sense of proportion When my heart still changes overnight
I had a dream of a winter garden A midnight rendezvous Silver, blue, and frozen silence What a fool I was for you
I had a dream of the open water I was swimming away out to sea So deep I could never touch bottom What a fool I used to be
If I could wave my magic wand I'd set everybody free
I'm not one to believe in magic Though my memory has a second-sight I'm not one to go pointing my finger When I radiate more heat than light
Don't ask me I'm just improvising My illusion of careless flight Can't you see my temperature's rising I radiate more heat than light
Don't ask me I'm just sympathizing My illusions a harmless flight Can't you see my temperature's rising I radiate more heat than light
I'm not one to believe in magic But I sometimes have a second-sight I'm not one with a sense of proportion When my heart still changes overnight
I'm not one to believe in magic [If I could wave my magic wand] Though my memory has a second-sight [I'd make everything all right] I'm not one to go pointing my finger [If I could wave my magic wand] When I radiate more heat than light [I'd set everybody free] I'm not one to believe in magic [If I could wave my magic wand] I'm not one to believe in magic
