It's Magic Lyrics - Peter Paul & Mary With Symphony Orchestra: Prague - Peter, Paul & Mary

He cut her in half with a shiny steel saw 

He put her all back together and I was in awe 

As rabbits and doves and bandannas appeared 

And he pulled a quarter right out of my ear 

And I turned to my dad, I said, "Howd he do it?" 

And dad, he just smiled, he said, "Theres nothing to it" 

Its magic and you dont want to know 

Just how its done, it would ruin the show 

Youve just got to believe 

Cause believing is what makes it happen 

Oh its nothing but magic, magic 

Now I fell in love the first time in eight grade 

And I started shaving the very next day 

Just walking her home made me light on my feet 

And I promised her things you just wouldnt believe 

And when I asked my dad why girls had that effect 

He said, "Go ask your mom, I aint figured it yet" 

Its magic and you dont want to know 

Just how its done, it would ruin the show 

Youve just got to believe 

Cause believing is what makes it happen 

Oh its nothing but magic, it's magic 

Well, the years have been hard, the years have been kind 

These last years have taken both parents of mine 

Some things you cant change with a wave of your hand 

There are so many things I still dont understand 

But in a hospital gown standing next to my wife 

Im watching this miracle come into life 

And its magic and you dont want to know 

Just how its done, it would ruin the show 

Youve just got to believe 

Cause believing is what makes it happen 

Oh its nothing but magic and you dont want to know 

Just how its done, it would ruin the show 

Youve just got to believe 

Cause believing is what makes it happen 

Oh its nothing but magic, magic yes, its magic
