taher shah - smoke and mirrors lyrics
the velvet curtains drew back slow
spotlight hit like falling snow
a man in black, a silver ring
pulled a card and said, “pick anything.”
he smiled sharp like a knowing thief
a trick up his sleeve, i barely could breathe
he spun my world, turned day into night
made my doubt disappear in a flash of white
i swore i saw his hands in motion
but somehow missed the sleight of devotion
a quarter spun into thin air
left me wondering how it got there
oh, it’s all just smoke and mirrors
a little bit of faith, a little bit of fear
you blink too fast, the moment’s gone
now you see it, now it’s gone
and if you need a little wonder, a littlе dream
hire a magician make thе night pristine
he took my hand, led me through
a stage of secrets i never knew
said, “life’s a trick, it’s all pretend
but if you play along, you win in the end.”
a deck of cards, a twist of fate
a dove took flight from an empty crate
i swore i heard my heartbeat loud
as he bowed low to the roaring crowd
i swore i saw his hands in motion
but somehow missed the sleight of devotion
a coin appeared behind my ear
and i laughed like i was ten years younger here
oh, it’s all just smoke and mirrors
a little bit of faith, a little bit of fear
you blink too fast, the moment’s gone
now you see it, now it’s gone
and if you need a little wonder, a little dream
hire a magician, make the night pristine
maybe magic’s just a story we tell
to make the world feel a little less real
but standing there in the dim+lit glow
for just a second, i didn’t need to know
oh, it’s all just smoke and mirrors
a little bit of faith, a little bit of fear
you blink too fast, the moment’s gone
now you see it, now it’s gone
and if you need a little wonder, a little dream
hire a magician, make the night pristine
the velvet curtains closed once more
and i stood there, still unsure
maybe life’s a trick, maybe it’s real
but magic was the way he made me feel
