| Cold late night, so long ago
|
| When I was not so strong, you know
|
| A pretty man came to me
|
| 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 me
|
| He looked right through me, yeah
|
| «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 understand
|
| Try to understand
|
| Try, try, try to understand
|
| I’m a magic man»
|
| Winter nights, we sang in tune
|
| Played inside the months of moon
|
| Never think of never
|
| Let this spell last forever
|
| Well, summer lover passed to fall
|
| Tried to realize it all
|
| Mama says she’s worried
|
| Growing up in a hurry, yeah
|
| «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 understand
|
| Try to understand
|
| Try, try, try to understand
|
| He’s a magic man, Mama
|
| Ah, he’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 understand
|
| Try to understand
|
| Oh, oh, oh
|
| Try, try to understand
|
| Try, try, try to understand
|
| He’s a magic man, oh yeah
|
| Ooh, he 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 understand
|
| Try to understand
|
| Try, try, try to understand
|
| He’s a magic man
|
| Yeah, oh |
