Lyrics

[Verse 1]

That old black magic has me

In it's spell

That old black magic

That you weave so well

Icy fingers up and down my spine

Same old witch craft

When your eyes meet mine

[Verse 2]

The same old tingle

That I feel inside

And then that elevator starts its ride

Down and down I go

Round and round I go

Like a leaf that's caught in the tide

[Verse 3]

I should stay away

But what can I do?

I hear your name

And I'm aflame

Aflame with such a burning desire

That only your kiss

Can put out the fire

[Verse 4]

You are the lover

I have waited for

The mate that fate had me created for

And every time your lips meet mine

[Verse 5]

Baby, down and down I go

Round and round I go

In a spin

Lovin' the spin that I'm in

Under that old black magic called love

[Verse 6]

You are the lover

That I've waited for

The mate that fate had me created for

And every time your lips meet mine

[Verse 7]

A baby

Down and down I go

All around I go

In a spin

Crazy 'bout the spin I'm in

Under that old black magic called love

[Verse 8]

That old black magic called love

That old black magic called love
