Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Summer, it turns me upside down
Summer, summer, summer, it's like a merry-go-round
I see you under the midnight, all shackles and bows
High shoes with the cleats a-clickin', a temperamental glow
How could you let me go?
[PreChorus]
Ooh, got a hold on you, got a hold on you
I've got a hold on you tonight
Uh, got a hold on you, got a hold on you
Got a hold on you
Ah, check it
[Chorus]
Uh-oh, it's magic
When I'm with you
I know it's magic
Uh-oh, it's magic
Just a little magic
I know it's magic
You know it's true
I got a hold on you
[Verse 2]
Oh twisted under sideways down
I know you're getting twisted and you can't calm down
I see you under the midnight, love darts in your eyes
How far can you take it till you realize
There's magic in your eyes?
[PreChorus]
I got a hold on you, got a hold on you
Got a hold on you tonight
I got a hold on you
Got a hold on you
Got a hold on you
Yeah, oh yeah, uh
[Chorus]
Uh-oh, it's magic
Uh-oh, when I'm with you
I know it's magic
Uh-oh, it's magic
Just a little bit of magic
I know it's magic
Pulls me through
I got a hold on you
[PreChorus]
I've got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
Got a hold on you
That's right, it's magic
[Chorus]
Uh-oh, it's magic
I know it's magic when I'm with you
I know it's magic
Uh-oh
Uh-oh, it's magic
Just a little magic
I know it's magic
Inside of you
Oh
I know it's magic
[Chorus]
Uh-oh, it's magic
Takes a little bit of magic
I know it's magic
That's true
When I'm with you
I know it's magic
[Outro]
Uh-oh, it's magic
Gotta be magic
Your magic pulls me through
Uh-oh, it's magic
Uh-oh, it's magic
