Lyrics

Lyrics for "Magic"

I've dreamed of a night like this
Filled with your sweet caress
Hidden places only for
You and I

Then kindness took me by the hand
And showed me how to understand
All the feelings that I'd had
Deep inside

When you whispered next to me
Your tender touch set my feelings free

Magic
In your eyes
Magic
Took me by surprise

Then still amazed I touched your lips
With disbelieving fingertips
All I wanted came to me
In your smile

Will you stay with me tonight
Your every move fills me with delight

Magic
In your eyes
Magic
Took me by surprise

Then you kissed me and I know
That all the feelings lead me right back to the

Magic
In your eyes
Magic
Took me by surprise
