When The Magic Works

(album: By Heart - 1984)

On a good night
I don't even have to try
'Cause it's so strong
Once I get on
To the right track
When I get the knack
She'll be helpless here forever.

When the magic works
There's no power on earth
To keep her from falling in love with me, yeah
Hey, when the magic works
I just say the right words
And she'll go to pieces right at my feet.

Moonlight
Everything is just right
I can feel it
Working a spell
And sometimes
When the planets are in line
I can see it come together.

When the magic works
There's no power on earth
To keep her from falling in love with me, yeah
Hmm, when the magic works
I just say the right words
And she'll go to pieces right at my feet.

Yeah, when the magic works
There's no power on earth
To keep her from falling in love with me, yeah
Hmm, when the magic works
I just say the right words
And she'll go to pieces right at my feet.

When the magic works...
