Magic Trick Songtext
von Mel Motel

What he said to me on the front porch
That night I carried for the rest of the year
′Cause everything that I'd been wanting
A miraculous promise flowing into my ears

But there was just one condition
That I would make my life′s mission
To satisfy
It's not that hard
That's what I thought

All it takes to win his love, oh-oh-oh-oh
Is a magic trick
All it takes to win his love, oh-oh-oh-oh
Is a magic trick

He don′t want no sleight of hand
He tells me don′t mark the cards
Just make the rivers stand
Or the oceans part


No waving my limbs yelling, "Ta-da!"
'Cause I climbed out of a box
Just yell to the heavens for rain
In seconds make it fall

That′s all it takes, ah-ah-ah-ah
To win his heart

What he said to me on the front porch
That night I took too seriously
Maybe he had thought it a fair game
When he said that like a mermaid was the way that I sang

And that I wasn't too far from
All the things that I had longed for
Just try a little
It′s not that hard
That's what I thought

All it takes to win his love, oh-oh-oh-oh
Is a magic trick
All it takes to win his love, oh-oh-oh-oh
Is a magic trick

He don′t want no sleight of hand
He tells me don't mark the cards
Just make the rivers stand
Or the oceans part


No waving my limbs yelling, "Ta-da!"
'Cause I climbed out of a box
Just yell to the heavens for rain
In seconds make it fall

That′s all it takes, ah-ah-ah-ah
To win his heart
That′s all it takes, ah-ah-ah-ah
Just a magic trick
