Sweet Magic
Drew James © 2016
 
The streetlights shine so bright, Tonight
Above the busy city sidewalks
The stars go dancing by, tonight
Everything seems new and different
I can see my smile
Reflecting in her eyes
She touched something in me
Something deep inside
My arm's around her waist
But it's only a taste
Of that sometimes tragic always sweet magic called love
 
Small pajamaed feet, run by
Through the hallway to the kitchen
Time to say goodnight, sweet dreams
Read a book, dad, something different
In no time at all
They grow so big and tall
You try not to let on
That you worry when they don't call
You risk heartbreak and pain
Cause all's fair in it's game
The sometimes tragic always sweet magic called love
 
All the summer leaves, turn gold
Above the busy city sidewalks
An early evening breeze, blows cold
But inside it's warm with laughter
We can see our smiles
Reflecting in their eyes
This family's grown and grown
Three generations wide
We started as a pair
Now this full house we can share
Sometimes tragic always sweet magic called love
