Got To Believe In Magic
Christian Bautista Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me to your heart
Show me where to start
Let me play the part of your first love
All the stars are right
Every wish is ours tonight my love

Pity those who wait
Trusting love to fate

Finding out too late
That they've lost it
Never let them go
They will never know
The ways of love

Got to believe in magic
Tell me how two people find each other
In a world that's full of strangers
Got to believe in magic
Something stronger than the moon above
'Cause it's magic when two people fall in love

I will never know
Why I need you so
All I need to know is this feeling
Please handle it with care
We were born to share this dream, my love

Got to believe in magic
Tell me how two people find each other
In a world that's full of strangers
Got to believe in magic
Something stronger than the moon above
'Cause it's magic when two people fall in love

Got to believe in magic
Tell me how two people find each other
In a world that's full of strangers
Got to believe in magic
Something stronger than the moon above
'Cause it's magic when two people fall in love
(Got to believe in magic)
Something stronger than the moon above
'Cause it's magic when two people fall in, love

La la la la la
