lyrics

there in the center of a cosmic sphere
floating in my dream
i was scratching under the chin
of my favorite childhood cat
wearing the grin that i have sorely missed
rowing in a raft
we passed Einstein and Gene Wilder
enjoying a friendly game of chess

do you believe in magic? well i think you do
you'll always have a friend shining big green eyes
down on you from the bedroom waiting in the sky

alive in the center of a coffee house
writing in a book
you got up to use the washroom
so i thought i'd have a look
images bursted from the printed page
and quickly came to life
before i knew it we were walking
through a carnival at night
there was a lion and his ringmaster
with a handlebar mustache
the cat was dying, the man was crying
so we sang to him and asked:

do you believe in magic? well i think you do
you'll always have a friend shining big green eyes
down on you from the circus waiting in the sky

and i think of all the time spent
wishing down a well when
i could touch the sky
we'll listen over AM radio for those hymns
we just have to close our eyes

do you believe in madness? well i think you do...

and i think of all the time spent
wishing down a well when
i could touch the sky
we'll listen over AM radio for those hymns
we just have to close our eyes
