And dad, he just smiled, he said, "Thereâs nothing to it" Itâs magic and you donât want to know Just how itâs done, it would ruin the show Youâve just got to believe âCause believing is what makes it happen Oh itâs 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 wouldnât believe And when I asked my dad why girls had that effect He said, "Go ask your mom, I ainât figured it yet" Itâs magic and you donât want to know Just how itâs done, it would ruin the show Youâve just got to believe âCause believing is what makes it happen Oh itâs 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 canât change with a wave of your hand There are so many things I still donât understand But in a hospital gown standing next to my wife Iâm watching this miracle come into life And itâs magic and you donât want to know Just how itâs done, it would ruin the show Youâve just got to believe âCause believing is what makes it happen Oh itâs nothing but magic and you donât want to know Just how itâs done, it would ruin the show Youâve just got to believe âCause believing is what makes it happen Oh itâs nothing but magic, magic yes, itâs magic
