the magic of the lights - eden espinosa, jaime lozano & the familia lyrics

[verse 1]
my father always talked about
the day that he left juarez
how the lights spread out for miles
as his plane neared jfk
and mesmerized, he stared and dreamed
of the life that we would build there
and promised one day i’d see too
the magic of the lights

[verse 2]
and as a girl i’d hold my breath
and fly away to meet him
i’d rush to him on wings and sing
he’d pick me up and twirl
and even now all that i want
if even for one night
is finally to share with him
the magic of the lights

[verse 3]
he said that when he wеnt to bed
as the sun was rising
he fеlt his heart would break in two
as he held our photos tight
and from his room he saw times square
the colors and the marquees
and as he slept all he could see
was the magic of the lights
[verse 4]
and as a child i’d close my eyes
and see myself on broadway
i’d walk along the streets ’til dawn
and watch the city wake
’cause even now all that i want
if even for one night
is finally to dance beneath
the magic of—

[bridge]
but then the years passed, there was no money
it was a distant idea
he’d send us pictures, winters and summers
saying he wished we were here
dreams don’t die easy, hope’s like the moonlight
it hides it’s glow, it’s blocked from sight
not letting go ’til it shines
i have a faith in cosmic signs
i’ll see my father’s face again once more
my bags are sitting at the door
i’m on my way

[verse 5]
who cares the snow, the gray and cold
the subway and the buses
and work that barely pays the bills
my father’s dream shines bright
and maybe now there is no doubt
that this will be my night
i finally will get to see
the magic of the lights
[outro]
we finally will get to share
the magic of the lights
