Blue Magic

(Album: All I Can Be - 1991)

I hear your favorite music on the jukebox
And right away I know that you are here
You always pick a time just when I think my mind is clear
You re-appear
And once again you got me in your power
This time I hope it's not a brief romance
'Cause it's too late to run. You've got me thinking one slow dance...
Is worth the chance.

And that old Blue Magic still works like a charm
As if you never even left these aching arms
You put a spell on me
I guess I'll always be hypnotized
By that Blue Magic in your eyes

Though I should run and hide from this illusion
Your smile is so much quicker than my pride
There's something up your sleeve that makes my heart believe inside...
This carpet ride...
Might lift us up and fly us to forever
But up to now it's all been slide of hand
I've got to face the fact, one look and I'm right back again
At your command

"There's something out there left for you
But it's not me
We've reached a point of no return
It's only right to set you free

I know I have to turn away
But there's nowhere for my love to go
And there won't come a day
When I won't honor what we've had

But I'll go on with my life
We can even say goodbye for now if
If that's what we have to do
Here in my heart
Even when my arms are empty
Darling, I'm still holding onto you

We can't deny that this one's out of our control
Stronger than the both of us
And bound to take its toll

I can stand the test of time
And as far as I can see
There are no walls that we can't climb
Standing between you and me

But I'll go on with my life
We can even say goodbye for now if
If that's what we have to do
Here in my heart
Even when my arms are empty
Darling, I'm still holding onto you

There's a place you'll always be
No matter where you are you're here with me
When the world is turning upside down
Together we will stand our ground

We can even say goodbye for now if
If that's what we have to do
Here in my heart
Even when my arms are empty
Darling, I'm still holding onto you

I'm still holding onto you
I'm still holding onto you
When I'm gone
When I'm gone, I'm holding on

'Cause that old Blue Magic still works like a charm
As if you never even left these aching arms
You put a spell on me
I guess I'll always be hypnotized
By that Blue Magic in your eyes

Yes, you put a spell on me
I guess I'll always be hypnotized
By that Blue Magic...That old Blue Magic...
That Blue Magic in you eyes
