- Juan (New Islands)
This song is about growing up! It's a letter to my kids, about how I miss their youth but embracing each and every day with them. It's about how I think we all feel about ourselves. It's about the special moments in time we create but last forever! Don't you miss the times when we were younger?

"Magic Journey"
Time for us to part was close at hand
I don't think that you quite understand
Oh why?
You know I just can't get you out my mind
Constantly thinking of you all the time
And although we had to say our goodbyes
I'll always hold on to you
lalalalalalala lalalalalala
Just one more magic journey, with you!
