If It's Magic (feat. Cécile McLorin Salvant)

If it's magic Then why can't it be everlasting Like the sun that always shines Like the poet's endless rhyme Like the galaxies in time If it's pleasing Then why can't it be never leaving Like the day that never fails Like on seashores, there are shells Like the time that always tells It holds the key to every heart Throughout the universe It fills you up without a bite And quenches every thirst, so If it's special Then with it, why aren't we as careful As making sure we dress in style Posing pictures with a smile Keeping danger from a child It holds the key to every heart Throughout the universe It fills you up without a bite And quenches every thirst, so If it's magic Why can't we make it everlasting Like the lifetime of the sun It will leave no heart undone For there's enough for everyone
