If It’s Magic - Intellectual

[Verse 1: 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 hеart

Throughout the universe

It fills you up without a bitе

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
