Verse 1
Christmas brings back the magic; carries it across the miles
Through the portals of time and space; back when I was a child

Chorus 1
Christmas is magic; colored tree lights and candy canes
When you wake up early; with frost on the window panes
Then we all grow up; the magic only lasts awhile
But you can still find it each year; when you look in the eyes of a child


Verse 2
Children look out the window; each and every Christmas Eve
Hoping that they might see a sight; only the young can believe

Chorus 2
Christmas is magic; Santa’s reindeer can really fly
With a magic top hat; a snowman will come alive
Then we all grow up; the magic only lasts awhile
But you can still find it each year; when you look in the eyes of a child

Instrumental

Verse 3
Every Christmas season; the magic comes back again
In the spirit of giving ourselves; to our families and friends

Chorus 3
Christmas is magic; don’t ever let it slip away
Keep it in your heart; each and every single day
We can still grow up; giving’s never out of style
Christmas is magic; it’s not just in the eyes of a child
Tag
Christmas is magic; it’s not just in the eyes of a child

Verse 1 (repeat)
Christmas brings back the magic; carries it across the miles
Through the portals of time and space; back when I was a child
