Magic Power
Hugo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Something at the edge of the mind,
You don't know what it is.
Something you were hoping to find,
And you're not sure what it is.

When you hear the music,
It all comes crystal clear.
Music does the talking,
So does the things you wanna hear.

(CHORUS:)
I'm young, and while that I'm free,
I've got the magic power of the music in me.
I'm young, and while that I'm free,
I've got the magic power of the music in me.

She climbs into bed and pulls the covers over her head,
And she turns the radio on.
She's had a rotten day,
So she hopes the DJ's gonna play,
Here favorite song.

It makes her feel much better,
Brings her closer to her dreams.
Then the magic power,
Makes it closer than it seems.

(CHORUS)

She's young now,
She's worn out, and she wants to be free,
She's got the magic power of the music from me.
She's young now,
She's worn out, and she wants to be free,
She's got the magic power of the music from me.

We're thinking it over,
But we just can't sort it out.
Do you want someone to tell you?
What they think it's all about.

Are you the one and only,
Sad and lonely reaching for the top.




The music keeps you going and it's never gonna stop,
Never gonna stop.

Whatever it is, you've been searching for it,


And you're not sure what it is.
But you're not entirely certain what that is,


When you hear the music,
Then you hear the sound,


It all comes crystal clear.
Suddenly everything becomes clearer,

She gets into bed and uses the covers to sleep,


And she turns the radio on.
And she puts on the radio,

She had a really bad day,


So she hopes the DJ's gonna play,

We're evaluating it,


But we just can't sort it out.
But we can't seem to understand it,

Do you want another person to explain it to you?,


What they think it's all about.
What their interpretation is,


Are you the one and only,
Are you by yourself,


Sad and lonely reaching for the top.
Feeling down and alone but still trying to succeed,


The music keeps you going and it's never gonna stop,
It's music that helps motivate you, and it won't ever cease,


Never gonna stop.
Not ever gonna stop,
