Chris Rice - Magic Wand lyrics

He rode his wagon into town

A gaudy spectacle

And every gray November brought him there

Always entertaining

Prestidigitating

Pulling rabbits from thin air

He would wave his magic wand

He would say the magic words

Working up a miracle

Puttin’ on a show

Changing what I thought to be

Unchangeable reality

Wish I had a magic wand of my own

Now twenty-three Novembers later

The prestidigitator

Still holds a power in my mind

‘Cause I’d like a quick and easy way

To look inside and make a change

A magic wand would do me fine

I would wave my magic wand

I would say the magic words

Working up a miracle

Puttin’ on a show

Changing what I thought to be

Unchangeable reality

If I had a magic wand of my own

I would wave it over me and over you

And over all this crazy world

And make it right

Oh and there’s so much I’d change

If I could take the easy way!

I would wave my magic wand

I would say the magic words

Working up a miracle

Puttin’ on a show

Changing what I thought to be

Unchangeable reality

I would wave my magic wand

I would say the magic words

Working up a miracle

Puttin’ on a show

Changing what I thought to be

Unchangeable reality

If I had a magic wand of my own

The only way to really change

Is simple choices everyday

Obey the Spirit-whisper in my soul

With the help of God, a little time

Can change a heart, renew a mind

Without a magic wand He’ll work a miracle...
