At Girl Scout camp years ago, we sang a song I would like to remember but can't. It goes something like Growing up the grownups said that I was soon to find that I would have to leave childesh things behind. Do you believe in Magic? I believe...

It made refereces to a key and a hollow tree and an old house, I think. If anyone knows the words - please help. Thank you, JDH

When I was young, I thought the stars were made for wishing on,
And every hole in a tree would hide a leprechaun.
Old houses all had secret rooms if one could find the key.
I do believe in magic, I believe.

CHORUS: 'Cause magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain,
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again.
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave.
I do believe in magic, I believe.

Growing up, the grownups said someday I'd wake to find
That magic's just a childhood dream I'd have to leave behind,
Like clothes that would no longer fit and toys that I'd ignore.
I'd not believe in magic anymore, but...(to chorus)

When I grew up, I learned again that, much to my surprise,
Magic did not fade away; it took a new disguise:
A child, a friend, a smile, a song, the courage to stand tall.
I do believe in magic after all.

And magic is the sun that makes a rainbow out of rain,
And magic keeps the dream alive to try and try again.
Magic is the love that stays when good friends have to leave.
I do believe in magic, 'cause love's the greatest magic.
I do believe in magic, I believe.


Enjoy. It's a great campfire type song for kids of all ages.
