Magic Every Moment

This song is Dan Fogelberg's album "River of Souls" released in 1993-I had the cassette when it came out and now I have the CD and his "Live: Something Old... New... Borrowed... and some Blues" CD released May 2000 and I have this CD
I have a 94 "River of Souls" Tour shirt, but I did not see him on that tour because I was in the "New Arizona Family" alcohol/drug rehab in Phoenix, Arizona for 9 months from 94/95
On July 12,2000 when I saw Dan Fogelberg and his band in concert at Humphrey's by the Bay in San Diego, California this song was piped in over the speakers as Dan and his band were leaving the stage
On July 2,2002 when I saw Dan Fogelberg and his band at the Grove Venue in Anahei, California they performed this song
I went backstage after the concert and talked with Dan's band member Robert McEntee
I drew 2 pictures of Dan Fogelberg and they were given to him that night
Dan Fogelberg signed my "Dan Fogelberg Home Free/Souvenirs" songbook that night
These are the list of performers on the "Live: Something Old... New... Borrowed... and some Blues" CD

I awoke this morning to a shattering sound
And I went downstairs and found these shards of glass strewn all around
And there upon the floor I found this poor broken dove
And it made me realize how very fragile is this life that we so love

I came back up to bed and I held you so tight
And I prayed up to the Father, oh I prayed with all my might
That He'd always keep you with me, that He'd always keep you safe
And when I went downstairs I found that dove had somehow up and flown away

There's a magic every moment
There's a miracles each day
There's a magic every moment
Oh won't you let the music play
Oh won't you let the music play

On a high and windy island I was gazing out to sea
When a long forgotten feeling came and took control of me
It was then the clouds burst open and the sun came pouring through
When it hit those dancing waters in an instant all eternity I knew

There's so much we take for granted, there's so much we never say
We get caught up in the motion of just a living day to day
We are fettered to the future, we are prisoners of the past
And we never seem to notice 'til our lives have finally slipped right through our grasp

There's a magic every moment
There's a miracles each day
There's a magic every moment
Oh won't you let the music play
Oh won't you let the music play

You can see forever in a single drop of dew
You can see that same forever if you look down deep inside of you
There's a spark of the creator in every living thing
He respects me when I work but He so loves me when I sing

There's a magic every moment
There's a miracles each day
There's a magic every moment
Oh won't you let the music play
Oh won't you let the music play

There's a magic every moment
There's a miracles each day
There's a magic every moment
Oh won't you let the music play
Oh won't you let the music play
