If It’s Magic – Caetano Veloso – letras

If it’s magic…Then why can’t it be everlasting?Like the sun that always shinesLike the poets in this rhymeLike the galaxies in timeIf it’s pleasing…Then why can’t it be never leaving?Like the day that never failsLike on seashores there are shellsLike the time hat always tellsIt holds the key to every heartThroughout the universeIt fills you up without a biteAnd quenches every thirstIf it’s special…Then with it why aren’t we as careful?As making sure we dress in stylePosing pictures with a smileKeeping danger from a childIt holds the key to every heartThroughout the universeIt fills you up without a biteAnd quenches every thirstSo… If it’s magicWhy can’t we make it everlasting?Like the lifetime of the sunIt will leave no heart undoneFor there’s enoughfor evergone
