He cut her in half with a shiny steel saw
He put her all back together and I was in awe
As rabbits and doves and bandannas appeared
And he pulled a quarter right out of my ear
And I turned to my dad, I said, "Howd he do it?"
And dad, he just smiled, he said, "Theres nothing to it"Its magic and you dont want to know
Just how its done, it would ruin the show
Youve just got to believe
Cause believing is what makes it happen
Oh its nothing but magic, magicNow 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 wouldnt believe
And when I asked my dad why girls had that effect
He said, "Go ask your mom, I aint figured it yet"Its magic and you dont want to know
Just how its done, it would ruin the show
Youve just got to believe
Cause believing is what makes it happen
Oh its nothing but magic, it's magicWell, the years have been hard, the years have been kind
These last years have taken both parents of mine
Some things you cant change with a wave of your hand
There are so many things I still dont understand
But in a hospital gown standing next to my wife
Im watching this miracle come into lifeAnd its magic and you dont want to know
Just how its done, it would ruin the show
Youve just got to believe
Cause believing is what makes it happenOh its nothing but magic and you dont want to know
Just how its done, it would ruin the show
Youve just got to believe
Cause believing is what makes it happen
Oh its nothing but magic, magic yes, its magic
