I don’t care (he don’t care)  
About this world  
I don’t care (he don’t care)  
About that girl  
I don’t care (he don’t care)

I don’t care, I don’t care  
What they may think of me  
I’m happy-go-lucky, they say that I’m plucky  
Contented and carefree

Mmmmmm, I feel lucky today

Don’t cry out loud  
Just keep it inside, learn how to hide your feelings.  
Fly high and proud,  
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all.

We had it all  
Just like Bogie and Bacall  
Starring in our old late, late show  
Sailing away to Key Largo

The scars of your love remind me of us  
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all  
The scars of your love they leave me breathless  
I can’t help feeling

We could’ve had it all (you’re gonna wish you)  
(Never had met me)  
Rolling in the deep (tears are gonna fall)  
(Rolling in the deep)

Wise men say  
Only fools rush in  
But I can’t help falling in love with you  
Shall I stay?  
Would it be a sin  
If I can’t help falling in love with you?

She had a place in his life  
He never made her think twice  
As he rises to her apology  
Anybody else would surely know  
He’s watching her go  
But what a fool believes, he sees  
No wise man has the power to reason away  
What seems to be

If I listen long enough to you  
I’d find a way to believe that it’s all true  
Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried  
Still, I’d look to find a reason to believe

Listen  
Do you want to know a secret?  
Do you promise not to tell?  
Whoa, oh, oh

Closer  
Let me whisper in your ear  
Say the words you long to hear  
I’m in love with you  
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ooh

So I told a friendly star  
The way that dreamers often do  
Just how wonderful you are  
And why I’m so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hills  
Even told the golden daffodils  
At last, my heart’s an open door  
And my secret love’s no secret anymore

With just a—  
Wave of my magic wand  
Your troubles will soon be gone  
With a flick of the wrist and just a flash  
You’ll land a prince with a ton of cash  
A high-priced dress made by mice, no less  
Some crystal glass pumps and no more stress

Do you believe in magic in a young girl’s heart?  
How the music can free her whenever it starts  
And it’s magic if the music is groovy  
It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie  
I’ll tell you about the magic, and it’ll free your soul  
But it’s like trying to tell a stranger 'bout a rock ‘n’ roll

You have to believe we are magic  
Nothin’ can stand in our way  
You have to believe we are magic

I’ll bring all your dreams alive  
For you  
I’ll bring all your dreams alive  
For you
