Al Jarreau - Wait For The Magic Lyrics
Billy Jones is a mover
And he has a million plans
Wants to be the big improver
Wants to be a wealthy man
There are days when billy loses hope
He prays he can just hold out
And one day he will win.
Will he wait for the magic
No, not forever
Just wait for the magic again.
College girl wakes up in Boston
And she sips her morning tea
Cup in hand she's deciding
Well it's been some time
Since the boy she loves
Has found the time to write.
She checks her mail
And there's nothing there
Honey, something isn't right
Will she wait for the magic
No, not forever,
Just wait for the magic again
Never look down, no no
Don't surrender
Just wait for the magic again.
Well you touch him like a master
And you fit him like a glove
And his heart keeps beating faster
Could it be this man's in love.
You may lose, you may win
Find love'll break your heart
The best you can do is take a chance
Jump in and play your part.
As you wait for the magic
No, not forever
Just wait for the magic again
Never look down, no, no
Don't surrender
Just wait for the magic again.
Never look down, no no
Don't surrender
Just wait for the magic again
[repeat]

soulfulmind As a singer myself, I honestly feel Al had that rare quality of touching & healing one's soul if you were vulnerable enough to allow his voice and magic do that...RIP Al Jarreau
Blissful... ❤❤❤☺
Al Jarreau hands down has one of the most beautiful tones and such magic when he delivers. I remember being 5 and listening to "After All' and started crying. I didn't know it then but when melodies can you move you to tears, therein lies a great song. <3
It's true even children love beautiful music. I didn't like 'serious' music or lovesongs either but I loved that long too
Wow! It is smooth and tender like a kiss..mmmh! I wish i had a partner to hold tight in my arms while listening to this song..It is so romantic.
One of my all time favorites. Sweet memories.
great song .....
There are days.... Days
so nice....smooth relaxing..
Gloria S I thank you Daphne Fowler for turning me on to Al Jarreau Shelby North Carolina
Ahh, smooth jazz! This is so relaxing.
Timeless.RIP Al Jarreau ❤
Just listened to this song on Pandora! Always a big fan of Al Jarreau and his voice!!
Pee next
I have loved Al Jarreau since I heard his song playing at Tower Records when I was 14. Epic artist!!!! :*)
I had the same experience at a Music plus, I was 17 years old..and Look To the Rainbow was playing, I also got the chance to tell Al all about this at the Jazz Festival in Vancouver Washington 3 years ago! He gave me a kiss on the cheek!
@sand jim .Lucky girl or man! I wish he gave me a kiss too but..not like this..lol!
Al Jarreau is an American treasure.
I'll do anything to get a copy of this Album Tenderness, I simply love Al, with all my heart, reminds me when he perfomed here in South Africa
Got my copy in London in 2003
i love this song.....
this is very pretty song. thanks for uploading. it's relaxes my thoughts.
my favorite al jarreau song!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!
Really great song. I'd never heard this before a few of weeks ago, instantly liked it and "had" to do a cover since the song was stuck in my head.....sometimes music just grabs you and wont let go. Thanks for the upload.
Always wondered what that "This is for you, Andy." thing was all about. That was a special dedication to a dear friend that he lost along the way, and it makes me smile when I hear that (now that I know this). Still, this is one of his most gorgeous songs (well, to me it is):)
Arthur Jankins
you aren't alone, Arthur, I too think it is a beautiful song
He is pure deep recondite passionate surrender to music :-)
I have always enjoyed this song. I just didn't know that this was his song. I had thought someone else had sung it before him. Beautiful song.
I recorded this song in a cassette back in 1994, back then I didn´t knew the great Al Jarreau sang this song and few months ago I bought the Cd "love songs", what a pleasant surprise this beatiful song is part of that cd.
This is a great tune AL.
this is the 1st song that has impressed me and made me fall in love with Al Jarreau's songs !!
Yeeeeeessssss!!!! Joe Sample Piano..
Yeeeeeessssss!!!!
I can remember hearing this song on the muzak at Walmart when I worked there, always thought this song was magical . It just that ability to set your mind at ease:)
i fell in love with this song
Al Jarreau is one of the greatest vocalist I've ever heard. He imitates musical instruments with such ease. My husband, bassist Charles Fambrough, and I have listened to Al Jarreau for many years. It all just gets better and better. Keep doing what you're doing. Great Music! !
One Of The Greatest Musician of all Time, the way he strikes the notes, no one will ever challenge his ability, check his mouth when he sings, the way glide the work the
the words whenever he sing. a vocal Powerhouse of our time. thanks for the Music
Al Jarreau, your'e truly a Master of all, no wonder no one will ever try to imitate him,
Check his Breathing between the phrases of each song, truly breathtaking.
beautiful, smooth, Al
