come take My hand
You should know Me
I've always been in Your mind
You know I will be kind
I'll be guiding You

building Your dream
has to start now
there's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake
I'll be guiding You

-

Ya have to believe We are magic
nothing can stand in Our way
have to believe We are magic
don't let Your aim ever stray

and if all Your hopes survive
destiny will arrive

and bring all Your dreams alive
for You

-

from where I stand
You are home free
the planets align -- it's so rare
there's promise in the air
and I'm guiding You

through every turn
I'll be near You
I'll come every time You call
I'll catch You when Ya fall
I'll be guiding You

-

Ya have to believe We are magic
nothing can stand in Our way
have to believe We are magic
don't let Your aim ever stray

and if all Your hopes survive
destiny will arrive

and bring all Your dreams alive
for You

and bring all Your dreams to life
for You

Ya have to believe We are magic
nothing can stand in Our way
have to believe We are magic
don't let Your aim ever stray

and if all Your hopes survive
destiny will arrive

and bring all Your dreams alive
for You

and bring all Your dreams to life
for You
