[Verse 1]
So many colours that I swear I've never seen before
The same old music but with you it strikes a different chord
Hey boy, I feel like myself when I'm around you
So real, there's nobody else now that I found you
Guess I'm a sucker for a certain kind of city love
Millions of people, only one that I'm thinking of
Hey boy, I don't know what it is about you
I swear, the winter was colder here without you
[Chorus]
This is magic
This is magic
This is magic
This is magic
[Verse 2]
You make me feel like I'm a kid inside a candy store
A sugar rush straight to my heart, a taste I can't ignore, yeah, oh
Hey boy, I've never been much of a dreamer
That smile is turning me into a believer
[Chorus]
This is magic
This is magic
This is magic
This is magic
[Bridge]
Baby, I don't wanna lose this feeling
Baby, you're knocking me off my feet
This music's crazy
Your body's all I need and I want more (Ooh)
Baby, so come and dance on over
Baby, and rock with me to the beat
This music's crazy
Just a little closer, I'm all yours, oh
[Chorus]
(This is magic) This is magic
(This is magic) Ooh it's all magic, yeah
(This is magic) You and me, you and me, baby
(This is magic) Magic, oh
[Outro]
(This is magic)
Hey boy, I feel like myself when I'm around you
(This is magic)
Hey boy, there's nobody else now that I've found you
(This is magic) Oh yeah yeah yeah
This is magic, this is magic
This is magic, this is magic
This is magic, this is magic
This is magic, this is magic
