Presto by Rush
Lyrics & Translation
English
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 illusion's a harmless flight
Can't you see
My temperature's rising
I radiate more heat than light
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'm not one to believe in magic
(If I could wave my magic wand)
Though my memory has a second sight
(I'd make everything all right)
I'm not one to go pointing my finger
(If I could wave my magic wand)
When I radiate more heat than light
(I'd set everybody free)
I'm not one to believe in magic
(If I could wave my magic wand)
I'm not one to believe in magic

Presto (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Si pudiera agitar mi varita mágica...
Estoy hecho del polvo de las estrellas
Y los océanos fluyen en mis venas
Aquí me escondo en el corazón de la ciudad
Como un extraño saliendo de la lluvia
El avión de la tarde se eleva de la pista
Sobre constelaciones de luz
Miro hacia abajo a un millón de casas
Y me pregunto qué estás haciendo esta noche
Si pudiera agitar mi varita mágica
Haría que todo estuviera bien
No soy de los que creen en la magia
Pero a veces tengo una segunda vista
No soy uno con sentido de la proporción
Cuando mi corazón aún cambia de la noche a la mañana
Tuve un sueño con un jardín de invierno
Una cita a medianoche
Plata, azul y silencio helado
Qué tonto fui por ti
Tuve un sueño con el agua abierta
Nadaba mar adentro
Tan profundo que nunca pude tocar fondo
Qué tonto solía ser
Si pudiera agitar mi varita mágica
Liberaría a todo el mundo
No soy de los que creen en la magia
Aunque mi memoria tiene una segunda vista
No soy de los que señalan con el dedo
Cuando irradio más calor que luz
No me preguntes
Solo estoy improvisando
Mi ilusión de vuelo despreocupado
¿No puedes ver?
Mi temperatura está subiendo
Irradio más calor que luz
No me preguntes
Solo estoy simpatizando
Mi ilusión es un vuelo inofensivo
¿No puedes ver?
Mi temperatura está subiendo
Irradio más calor que luz
No soy de los que creen en la magia
Pero a veces tengo una segunda vista
No soy uno con sentido de la proporción
Cuando mi corazón aún cambia de la noche a la mañana
No soy de los que creen en la magia
(Si pudiera agitar mi varita mágica)
Aunque mi memoria tiene una segunda vista
(Haría que todo estuviera bien)
No soy de los que señalan con el dedo
(Si pudiera agitar mi varita mágica)
Cuando irradio más calor que luz
(Liberaría a todo el mundo)
No soy de los que creen en la magia
(Si pudiera agitar mi varita mágica)
No soy de los que creen en la magia
