THERE'S A STORY GOIN' ROUND AND IT STARTED LONG AGO
AND EVERYONE KEEPS TELLING IT IN PLACES HIGH AND LOW
AND BECAUSE MY HEART IS WEARY
I REALLY WANT TO KNOW
IS IT TRUE?
WHAT THEY SAY
IS IT TRUE?

IS IT TRUE THERE IS MAGIC
THAT WE HAVE NEVER KNOWN?
IS IT TRUE THERE ARE POWERS
THAT WE CAN CALL OUR OWN?
IS IT TRUE THERE IS SOMETHING WHOSE WONDERS STAND ALONE?
IS IT TRUE?
WHAT THEY SAY
IS IT TRUE?

IS IT TRUE? (NOT BECAUSE THEY TOLD ME SO)
IS IT TRUE? (NOT BECAUSE THE STORY'S OLD)
IS IT TRUE? (NOT TILL YOU REALLY KNOW)
IS IT TRUE? (NOT TILL YOU FEEL IT GROW)
IS IT TRUE? (NOW I SEE IT WITH MY EYES)
IS IT TRUE? (NOW I SEE THE WONDER RISE)
IS IT TRUE? (NOW I KNOW THE REASON WHY)
IS IT TRUE?

IS IT TRUE THAT THE DOUBTERS WERE NARROW AND NAIVE? (IS IT TRUE?)
IS IT TRUE THAT THE SKEPTICS SAID
THE HOPE WAS MAKE BELIEVE? (MAKE BELIEVE!)
FOR A HEART THAT IS WEARY IT MATTERS
THROUGH AND THROUGH IS IT TRUE?
WHAT THEY SAY
IS IT TRUE?

BUT I KNOW WHEN I WANDER WITH AN ACHIN' IN MY HEART
WE BEEN WAITIN' ROUND AND HOPIN' FOR THE MAGIC TIME TO START
AND NOW THERE'S NO MORE WAITIN'
GOOD NEWS FOR ME AND YOU CAUSE IT'S TRUE
YES, IT'S TRUE
YES, IT'S TRUE

IS IT TRUE? (NOT BECAUSE THEY TOLD ME SO)
IS IT TRUE? (NOT BECAUSE THE STORY'S OLD)
IS IT TRUE? (NOT TILL YOU REALLY KNOW)
IS IT TRUE? (NOT TILL YOU FEEL IT GROW)
IS IT TRUE? (NOW IT SEE IT WITH MY EYES)
IS IT TRUE? (NOW I SEE THE WONDER RISE)
IS IT TRUE? (NOW I KNOW THE REASON WHY)
IT IS TRUE? (YEAH)
