Long shot, but it's not the theme song from The Neverending Story by Limahl? - [1]

I remember hearing a song about 20 years ago, possibly on the radio. I didn't hear the song again for a long time, until about 2 to 3 years ago when I heard Stephen A. Smith sing a brief rendition of the song on his radio show. In his rendition, the second line (or second half of the first line?) contained the words "there's a magic story" or "it's a magic story" or something similar. It's hard to describe the melody over the Internet, but I'm pretty sure the first line (or first half of the first line?) contained 5 notes.
Sadly, when I try to search for "there's a magic story" or even simply "a magic story" on DuckDuckGo, it doesn't turn up any good results. I wonder if Stephen A. Smith changed the lyrics.
Does anybody know what song I'm talking about?
