If it's magic
Then why can't it be everlasting
Like the sun that always shines
Like the poets endless rhyme
Like the galaxies in time
If it's pleasing
Then why can't it be never leaving
Like the, 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
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
There's enough for everyone
