[Verse 1]
Close your eyes, baby
Make a wish
Do you wanna try, wanna try?
You got the power
'Cause you know that I'm flying high, flying high
[Pre-Chorus]
Cast a spell, can you read my mind?
Are you surprised at what you find?
[Chorus]
So don't ask me to dance (voodoo)
'Cause I'm caught in your magic spell
It's such a spooky romance (voodoo)
If it's ooh-doo, honey, who can tell?
With the voodoo that you do so well
[Verse 2]
Close your eyes, baby
Make a wish
Do you think of me, think of me?
You've got the power, got control of me
Mentally, totally
[Pre-Chorus]
Cast a spell, can you read my mind?
Are you surprised at what you find?
[Chorus]
So don't ask me to dance (voodoo)
'Cause I'm caught in your magic spell
It's such a spooky romance (voodoo)
If it's ooh-doo, honey, who can tell?
With the voodoo that you do so well
With the voodoo that you do so well
Abracadabra, baby
[Bridge]
Hold me in the shadows
Touch me in the night
Something wrong will never feel so right
Waiting for you, ooh
[Chorus]
Oh, so don't ask me to dance (voodoo)
'Cause I'm caught in your magic spell
It's such a spooky romance (voodoo)
If it's ooh-doo, honey, who can tell?
So don't ask me to dance (voodoo)
'Cause I'm caught in your magic spell
It's such a spooky romance (voodoo)
If it's ooh-doo, honey, who can tell?
[Outro]
Voodoo
Uh-huh, oh
Voodoo
Voodoo
