Is It True Lyrics

There's a story going 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 someone,
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 until you really know.
Is it true?
Not until you feel it grow.
Is it true?
Now I see it with my eyes.
Is it true?
Now I've see the glory rise.
Is it true?
Now I know the reason why.
Is it true?
Is it true that the doubters,
Say that they believe?
Is it true that the skeptics finally receive?
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 until you really know.
Is it true? Not until you feel it grow.
Is it true? Now I see it with my eyes.
Is it true? Now I've see the glory rise.
Is it true? Now I know the reason why.
Is it true?
