The Magician

Magic!

The extraordinary thing

What makes it so special to human sight?

Doing things that are impossible to the mind

Leaving it shaking and trembling

Creating illusions with that mighty hands

Take us back to where we started

Magic! Magic! Magic!

An audience is gained by the sound of that drum

Lies in the heart of the forest

Bending the trees according to his will

New skills emerge due to experience and practice

Making things seem beyond imagination

He and his faithful apprentice

Side by side they walk together

Manipulating minds of the greatest minds

Leaving the audience in amazement

From ancient to modern time

United by one rule

A simple rule that keeps it spinning as the earth orbit the sun

Kept it very deep within

For it to be known only by him

A magician never reveals his secret.
