If I could wave my magic wand...

I am made from the dust of the stars

And the oceans flow in my veins
Here I hide in the heart of the city
Like a stranger coming out of the rain


The evening plane rises up from the runway
Over constellations of light

I look down into a million houses
And wonder what you're doing tonight


If I could wave my magic wand
I'd make everything all right


I'm not one to believe in magic
But I sometimes have a second sight
I'm not one with a sense of proportion

When my heart still changes overnight

I had a dream of a winter garden

A midnight rendezvous
Silver, blue and frozen silence
What a fool I was for you


I had a dream of the open water
I was swimming away out to sea

So deep I could never touch bottom
What a fool I used to be


If I could wave my magic wand
I'd set everybody free


I'm not one to believe in magic
Though my memory has a second sight
I'm not one to go pointing my finger

When I radiate more heat than light

Don't ask me

I'm just improvising
My illusion of careless flight
Can't you see

My temperature's rising
I radiate more heat than light


Don't ask me
I'm just sympathizing
My illusions a harmless flight

Can't you see
My temperature's rising
I radiate more heat than light
