There's something magic about you That really on my brain It's got the whole world a-guessing But it's something I can't explain But life for me without you Wouldn't be the same I'd be like a snowball melting in a flame For you're more to me Than a palace is to a king (Instrumental) 'Yaa-as, I hear ya Uh-huh, that's it, uh-huh' 'Uh-huh, that's it boys C'mon, now' There's something magic about you That really stone my brain It's got the whole world a-guessing But it's something I can't explain Oh, life for me without you Wouldn't be the same I feel like a snowball melting in a flame For you're more to me Than a palace is to a king. ~
