Songs: Magic

Created on: February 20, 2010

A Magic Show.
 
Lovin' you,
you know;
is like some
kinda
Magic show -
You're here,
then you
disappear ~
into thin air.  
Yeah, here
and then
you go -
and I'm so obsessed;
impressed,
with your optical
illusion ~
I'm questionin'
reality -
Come on create
some more
confusion -
Manipulate
my mentality,
behind the
curtain.   
You know that
I am certain ~


yeah, you're
gonna cut me
in-two...
Uh, yeah, you're
gonna make me
love you; love you -
Gonna mesmerize
me - gonna get inside me;
Gonna make me -
Uh, yeah, make me;
make me fall into
love - love with you.

And love, to me,
baby, it's an illusion
an intrusion ~
and I can't commit -
No, I don't wanna
give it -
No, I ain't gonna
give it up...
No, I won't fall again ~
for a magician;
for a magic man
a man like you...
Intuition -
Prohibition -
You can't penetrate;
I know you're wishin'
You could make it in.

All my friends know, now,
what I'm goin' through,
you amazed them with
your magic show -
pulled a trick out from
under you hat -
Uh, oh, imagine that;
There's somethin' up your
sleeve;
and I cannot believe -
I cannot believe -
you're in love with me...
Just can't receive your
love for me -

Yeah, only Houdini knows
where a man goes when
the audience blinds their
eyes...
Uh, yeah, and it's only a slide
of hand;
only a fantasy -
Sometimes, it seems you're
just foolin' around with me -
preparing me for the unknown ~
Magic mistaken for a miracle;
is like a pauper posing as
an emperor -
Someday - the truth will surface -
you can't fake love,
on purpose ~
You can't make love -
if it's imperfect ~
Yeah; it's gotta be right...
uh, yeah- gotta feel right tonight -
Gotta feel alright - alright tonight.
 
And love, to me,
baby, it's an illusion
an intrusion ~
and I can't commit -
No, I don't wanna
give it -
No, I ain't gonna
give it up...
No, I won't fall again ~
He may never call again;
a magician;
a magic man
lookin' for a fan -
for someone to
saw in-two.
Intuition -
Prohibition -
Stood in the spotlight -
but did you ever listen?
to the wishes I whispered
to the to crowd?
I know you're wishin', now;
wishin' somehow -
Wishin' you could make it in;
back into my heart.
