Cold, late night so long ago
when I was not so strong you know
A pretty man came to me
I never seen eyes so blue
You know, I could not run away it seemed
we'd seen each other in a dream
Seemed like he knew mehe looked right through meyeah

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"you don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile
But try to understandtry to understand
Try, try, try to understandI'm a magic man"

Winter nights we sang in tune
Played inside the months of moon
"Never think of neverlet this spell last forever"
Well, summer lover passed to fall
tried to realize it all
Mama says she's worriedgrowing up in a hurry

"Come on home, girl" Mama cried on the phone
"Too soon to lose my baby yet, my girl should be at home"
But try to understandtry to understand
Try, try, try to understandhe's a magic man, Mamaahhe's a magic man

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"I cast my spell of love on you, a woman from a child"
But try to understandtry to understand
Ohohtry, try, try to understand
He's a magic manohhe's got the magic hands

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"You don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile"
But try to understandtry to understand
