Almost Magic

Woke up with a secret in my head

Mirror says I’m changing, just a little bit

Shoelaces loose, running late again

But somehow everything feels different

Neon notes in my headphones hum

Heart beats fast when I count to one

I don’t know why today feels new

Like the sky’s been waiting too

Every step’s a question mark

But I like it in the dark

If I trip, I’ll laugh it off

I’m not lost, I’m just unlocked

I’m almost magic, can you tell?

Floating somewhere between now and then

I’m not perfect, that’s the spell

I glow brighter when I’m myself

Heart goes click, click — déjà vu

Every little dream feels true

I’m almost magic, so are you

Say it once, say it twice — it’s true

Sticky notes and messy plans

Drawing stars on my own hands

They say “wait,” but I lean in

What if “what if” means begin?

Laugh too loud, talk too fast

Making moments I wanna last

If this feeling fades someday

I’ll remember it this way

Even doubts look kinda cute

When I see them next to you

I don’t need to know the end

This right now is everything

I’m almost magic, can you tell?

Caught between a wish and a yell

I fall forward, not farewell

Every mistake rings like a bell

Heart goes click, click — shining through

Every color feels brand new

I’m almost magic, so are you

Pinky promise, cross my truth

If I’m scared, I’ll hold it tight

Fear looks small under fairy lights

Growing up but staying light

I can be both — that’s alright

I’m almost magic, say my name

Watch me glow just the same

Not a trick, not a game

Just a girl with a spark and flame

Heart goes click, click — hear it bloom

Dancing in my own cocoon

I’m almost magic, so are you

Almost magic… coming true
