Magic

There's a little bit of magic
In everyone that lives
A gift worthwhile is to bring a smile
And all the joy it gives

A heartfelt word of kindness
Can turn away their wrath
It can cause the strong to admit they're wrong
And seek a different path

There's magic in a warm embrace
That calms a fearful soul
When a broken heart is torn apart
A hug can help console

There's magic in a single tear
That can melt a heart of stone
We can't explain this liquid pain
This magic is still unknown

There'a magic in a simple prayer
That can reach the throne above
The magic there is what we share
This magic we call love
