Tulips that spring Abracadabra! from gardens in May Blackbirds that sing glad incantations to summon the day Babies that grow Presto! into sweet boys And little laughing twirling girls Such are the facts of life in this magical world A dazzling place where life can be hard but it's hard to complain When sunbeams change to diamonds on water and rainbows in rain And light up the moon, which makes lovers swoon as they Stroll down Les Champ Elysees "Je t'aime", they say with a kiss in this magical world Skyrocket smiles in July and tender December noels As old Father Time is ceaselessly, endlessly, spinning his spell The days and the years appearing from nowhere and Vanishing into thin air Lovely and rare, each a magnificent pearl A shimmering flower unfurled The gift of a magical world
