Letra de Presto

Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson
If i could wave my magic wand...
I am made from the dust of the stars
and the oceans flow in my veins
here i hide in the heart of the city
like a stranger coming out of the rain
The evening plane rises up from the runway
over constellations of light
i look down into a million houses
and wonder what you're doing tonight
If i could wave my magic wand
i'd make everything all right
I'm not one to believe in magic
but i sometimes have a second-sight
i'm not one with a sense of proportion
when my heart still changes overnight
I had a dream of a winter garden
a midnight rendezvous
silver, blue, and frozen silence
what a fool i was for you
I had a dream of the open water
i was swimming away out to sea
so deep i could never touch bottom
what a fool i used to be
If i could wave my magic wand
i'd set everybody free
I'm not one to believe in magic
though my memory has a second-sight
i'm not one to go pointing my finger
when i radiate more heat than light
Don't ask me
i'm just improvising
my illusion of careless flight
can't you see
my temperature's rising
i radiate more heat than light
Don't ask me
i'm just sympathizing
my illusions a harmless flight
can't you see
my temperature's rising
i radiate more heat than light
