Magic Pen
© 2008 Ronnie Lee Hurst
I wish I had a magic pen
That knew just what to write
One to spell it out for you,
Just how I feel inside
All I ever end up with
Is some worn out cliche'
I wish I had a magic pen,
That knew just what to say
Then I could place the perfect phrase
Right in the perfect spot
And let you see a side of me,
That isn't seen a lot
There wouldn't be a wasted word,
Each one would speak the truth
A magic pen could help me send
Those special words to you
I wish I had a magic pen,
Cause you deserve to know
What's behind this pride of mine
That's hard for me to show
Fancy conversation's never
Been my cup of tea
But then again, a magic pen,
Might bring it out of me
Then I could place the perfect phrase
Right in the perfect spot
And let you see a side of me,
That isn't seen a lot
There wouldn't be a wasted word,
Each one would speak the truth
A magic pen could help me send
Those special words to you
A magic pen could help me send
Those special words to you

This is one, craft wise, that I'm
proudest of. At times, during the writing process, I really wished I
had a magic pen!
