Dorothy Ashby - If It's Magic lyrics

[Intro] If it's magic Then why can't it be everlasting Like the sun that always shines Like the poets in this rhyme Like the galaxies in time [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] It holds the key to every heart Throughout the universe It fills you up without a bite And quenches every thirst [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Outro] 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
