Presto

Lyrics

[Intro] If I could wave my magic wand... [Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus 1] If I could wave my magic wand I'd make everything all right [Chorus 2] 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 [Verse 3] I had a dream of a winter garden A midnight rendezvous Silver, blue and frozen silence What a fool I was for you [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus 1] If I could wave my magic wand I'd set everybody free [Chorus 2] 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 [Chorus 3] 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 [Guitar solo] [Chorus 3] Don't ask me I'm just sympathizing My illusion's a harmless flight Can't you see My temperature's rising? I radiate more heat than light [Chorus 2] 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 [Outro] 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
