When I was young I thought that stars were made for wishing on
And every hole deep in a tree must hide a leprechaun
Old houses all had secret rooms if you could find he key
I do believe in magic, I believe

Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, I believe

As I grew up the grown-ups said soon I'd wake to find
That magic is a childhood dream I'd have to leave behind
Like clothes that would no longer fit, or toys that I'd ignore
I'd not believe in magic anymore

Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, I believe

Now that I am grown, I've found that much to my surprise
The magic did not fade away, it took a new disguise
A child, a friend, a smile, a song, the courage to stand tall
I do believe in magic after all

Magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave
I do believe in magic, 'cause love's the greatest magic, I do believe in magic, I believe

(Corny last chorus to it, but I still like it!)
