Is It True?

There's a story goin' round and it started long ago

And everyone keeps telling it in places high and low

And because my heart is weary, I really want to know

Is it true what they say?

Is it true?

Is it true there is magic

That we have never known?

Is it true there are powers

That we can call our own?

Is it true there is something whose wonders stand alone?

Is it true what they say?

Is it true?

Is it true?

Not because they told me so

Is it true?

Not because the story's old

Is it true?

Not till you really know

Is it true?

Not till you feel it grow

Is it true?

Now I see it with my eyes

Is it true?

Now I see the wonder rise

Is it true?

Now I know the reason why

Is it true?

Is it true that the doubters were narrow and naive?

Is it true?

Is it true that the skeptics

Said the hope was make believe?

Make believe

For my heart that is weary, it matters through and through

Is it true what they say?

Is it true?

Ah, but I know when I wander with an achin' in my heart

We been waitin' round and hopin' for the magic time to start

And now there's no more waitin'

Good news for me and you 'cause it's true

Yes, it's true

Yes, it's true

Is it true?

Not because they told me so

Is it true?

Not because the story's old

Is it true?

Not till you really know

Is it true?

Not till you feel it grow

Is it true?

Now I see it with my eyes

Is it true?

Now I see the wonder rise

Is it true?

Now I know the reason why

'Cause it's true

Yeah!
