Could It Be Magic

-Words and Music by Adrienne Anderson and Barry Manilow

Spirit move me every time I'm near you

Whirling like a cyclone in my mind

Sweet Melissa, angel of my lifetime

Answer to all answers I can find

Baby, I love you, come, come, come into my arms

Let me know the wonder of all of you

Baby, I want you now, now, now, and hold on fast

Could this be the magic at last?

Lady, take me high upon a hillside

High up where the stallion meets the sun

I could love you, build my world around you

Never leave you till my life is done

Baby, I love you, come, come, come into my arms

Let me know the wonder of all of you

And baby, I want you now, now, oh, now, oh now and hold on fast

Could this be the magic at last?

Could it be magic?

Come, c'mon, c'mon, come oh-oh come into my arms

Oh, let me know the wonder of all of you, all of you

Baby, I want you now, now, oh now, oh now and hold on fast

Oh, could this be the magic at last?

Could it be magic?

Come, c'mon, c'mon, come oh-oh come into my arms

Oh, let me know the wonder of all of you

Baby, I want you now, now, oh now, oh now and hold on fast

Oh, could this be the magic at last?

Could it be magic?
