Tulips that spring Abracadabra! from gardens in May
Blackbirds that sing glad incantations to summon the day
Babies that grow Presto! into sweet boys
And little laughing twirling girls
Such are the facts of life in this magical world

A dazzling place where life can be hard but it’s hard to complain
When sunbeams change to diamonds on water and rainbows in rain
And light up the moon, which makes lovers swoon as they
Stroll down Les Champ Elysees
“Je t’aime”, they say with a kiss in this magical world

Skyrocket smiles in July and tender December noels
As old Father Time is ceaselessly, endlessly, spinning his spell
The days and the years appearing from nowhere and
Vanishing into thin air
Lovely and rare, each a magnificent pearl
A shimmering flower unfurled
The gift of a magical world
