Magician, Magician
|
take me upon your wings, and
|
gently roll the clouds away
|
|
I'm sorry, so sorry
|
I have no incantations
|
only words to help sweep me away
|
|
I want some magic to sweep me away
|
I want some magic to sweep me away
|
I want to count to five
|
turn around and find myself gone
|
Fly me through the storm
|
and wake up in the calm
|
|
Release me from this body
|
from this bulk that moves beside me
|
Let me leave this body far away
|
|
I'm sick of looking at me
|
I hate this painful body
|
that disease has slowly worn away
|
|
Magician take my spirit
|
inside I'm young and vital
|
Inside I'm alive, please take me away
|
|
So many things to do, it's too early
|
for my life to be ending
|
For this body, to simply rot away
|
|
I want some magic to keep me alive
|
I want a miracle, I don't want to die
|
I'm afraid that if I go to sleep I'll never wake
|
I'll no longer exist
|
I'll close my eyes and disappear
|
and float into the mist
|
|
Somebody, please hear me
|
my hand can't hold a cup of coffee
|
My fingers are weak, things just fall away
|
|
Inside I'm young and pretty
|
too many things unfinished
|
My very breath taken away
|
|
Doctor you're no magician
|
and I am no believer
|
I need more than faith can give me now
|
|
I want to believe in miracles
|
not just belief in numbers
|
I need some magic to take me away
|
|
I want some magic to sweep me away
|
I want some magic to sweep me away
|
Visit on this starlit night
|
replace the stars the moon the light, the sun's gone
|
Fly me through this storm
|
and wake up in the calm
|
I fly right through this storm
|
and I wake, up, in, the, calm
|
