Lyrics for That Old Black Magic

That old black magic's got 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 eyes meet mine The same old tingle that I feel inside And when that elevator starts its ride Darling, down and down I go Round and round I go Like a leaf that's caught in the tide 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 You're the lover You're the lover You're the lover You're the lover I have waited for The mate that fate had me created for And everytime your lips meet mine Darling, down and down I go Round and round I go In a spin, I'm loving the spin I'm in I'm under that old black magic called love Yes I'm in a spin, I'm loving the spin I'm in I'm under that old black magic called love Got me spinnin', spinnin', spinnin' around Like an elevator going down In this magic, black magic Called love
