That Old Black Magic
Enchanted Desires: Unraveling the Spell of That Old Black Magic
Lyrics
That old black magic has me in its spell,
Feeling entrapped and influenced by a mysterious and enchanting force.
That old black magic that you weave so well.
Referring to the captivating and skillful way the person weaves the magical spell.
Those icy fingers up and down my spine,
Describing a sensation of shivers or chills running up and down the spine.
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine.
Highlighting the recurring enchantment experienced when the eyes of the two individuals meet.
The same old tingle that I feel inside,
Expressing a familiar tingling sensation felt internally.
And then that elevator starts its ride.
Metaphorically describing the beginning of a journey or experience, like an elevator ride.
And down and down I go; round and round I go
Emphasizing the cyclical and unpredictable nature of the emotional journey.
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide.
Comparing the emotional experience to being carried away like a leaf in the tide.
I should stay away, but what can I do?
Acknowledging the awareness of potential harm but feeling powerless to resist.
I hear your name and I'm aflame.
Reacting intensely and passionately upon hearing the person's name.
Aflame with such a burning desire
Being consumed by a strong and passionate longing.
That only your kiss can put out the fire.
Stating that only a kiss from the person can calm the intense desire.
For you're the lover I have waited for,
Identifying the person as the long-awaited and destined lover.
The mate that Fate had me created for.
Suggesting a belief in fate, asserting that the person is the intended partner.
And every time your lips meet mine,
Describing the irresistible impact of their kisses on the speaker.
Darling, down and down I go; round and round I go
Reiterating the cyclical and downward emotional spiral when their lips meet.
In a spin, loving the spin I'm in
Describing a feeling of being in a spin or whirlwind, expressing enjoyment of the emotional turbulence.
Under that old black magic called love.
Concluding with the idea of being under the enduring and powerful spell of love.
