I wrote this after going to see the greatest showman on earth at the O2. BARRY MANILOW.
All the words are taken from Barry's songs or lines from his songs, "listening to magic" is my line, I'm just looking for someone to sing it now!!
Listening To Magic
Somewhere in the night we’re travelling through London town
Traffic is getting heavy but my heart is feeling light
At last the O2 looks like we made it through
Tonight is gonna be one special night
We queue and we queue baby its cold outside
All the time I’m trying to get the feeling again
made it through the rain we’re all safe and sound inside
Tonight is gonna be one special night
We wait and we wait it feels like to daybreak
Finally the stage begins to rise before my eyes
Best seats in the house I can’t believe the view
He looks me in the eyes and sings this one for you
Chorus.
It’s like I’m listening to magic for hour after hour
Hoping and praying that this night will never end
It’s like I’m listening to magic I’m under Barry’s special
power
He will take your troubled heart and make you feel better again
Just one voice the two of us who needs to dream
We’re living the greatest showman that the world has even seen
Even now your leaving us all far too soon
Tonight is a very special night
It’s like I’m listening to magic for hour after hour
Hoping and praying that this night will never end
It’s like I’m listening to magic I’m under Barry’s special
power
He will take your troubled heart and make you feel better
again.
It’s like I’m listening to magic.
“Can‘t smile without you” (whistle)…
Tempo 105.
