Johnny Mercer
That Old Black Magic
[Intro]
Oh, oh
[Verse 1]
That old black magic has me in its spell
That old black magic that you weave so well
Those icy fingers up and down my spine
The same old witchcraft when your lips meet mine
The same old tingle that I feel inside
And when that elevator starts its rise
Then down and down I go
Round and round I go
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide
[Bridge]
I should stay away but what can I do?
I hear your name, and I'm aflame
Aflame with such a burning desire
And only your kiss can put out the fire
[Verse 2]
Oh, you are the lover I have waited for
The mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine
Darling, down and down I go
Round and round I go
In a spin, loving the spin that I'm in
Under that old black magic of love
