[Chorus] Harry's no longer the boy under the staircase I grew up as well, but I did it my own way I never stopped believing in his magic so sublime And Harry's been by my side, after all this time [Verse 1] I was seven years old, I stole my brother's big book I read about a school of magic and I was immediately hooked He never found out I read his books late at night Until I started yelling spells at him when we had a fight [Chorus] Harry's no longer the boy under the staircase I grew up as well, but I did it my own way I never stopped believing in his magic so sublime And Harry's been by my side, after all this time [Verse 2] I was twelve years old, and I wasn't the cool kid I didn't like what the others liked, I just couldn't do it Mister Potter was my sweet escape, I just told myself Being popular is not as cool as reading 'bout house elfs [Chorus] Harry's no longer the boy under the staircase I grew up as well, but I did it my own way
I never stopped believing in his magic so sublime And Harry's been by my side, after all this time [Verse 3] I was sixteen years old, the last movie came out I could only eat pizza to keep me from crying out loud My heart was broken, my mind was scared I didn't want this to end, I just wasn't prepared [Chorus] Harry's no longer the boy under the staircase I grew up as well, but I did it my own way I never stopped believing in his magic so sublime And Harry's been by my side, after all this time [Verse 4] I'm nineteen years old, and Harry's still with me Whenever I feel lost, I just pick up a book and read I know the magic'll never leave me , it's way too strong Harry lives on in all of us, he'll never be gone [Chorus] Harry's no longer the boy under the staircase I grew up as well, but I did it my own way I never stopped believing in his magic so sublime And Harry's been by my side, after all this time
