Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The golden light above you, show me where you're from

The magic in your eye bewitches all you gaze upon

You stand up on your hill, with bebop all around you

They wonder where you're from, oh yeah, they wonder where I found you

[Verse 2]

Oh my love, it's a long way

Where you're from, it's a long way

[Verse 3]

I try to understand you, I try to love you right

The way you smile and touch me

It sets my heart alight

Your lips are like a fire, burnin' through my soul

And people ask me where you're from, they really wanna know, oh

[Verse 4]

Oh my soul, it's a long way

Where you're from it's a long way

Ahhh magic woman wrecking up my soul

Things you tell me have never been told

Magic woman, I don't know

Electric before me, I love you so, I love you so

Ohh whoa!

[Verse 5]

You're racing like a fireball, dancing like a ghost

You're gemini and I don't know which one I like the most

My head is getting broken, my mind is getting bust

But now I'm coming with you down the road of golden dust

[Verse 6]

Oh my love, it's a long way

Where you're from, it's a long way

[Verse 7]

Golden light above you, show me where you're from

The magic in your eye bewitches all you gaze upon

You stand up on your hill, bebop all around you

They wonder where you're from, oh yeah, they wonder where I found you

[Verse 8]

Oh my love, it's a long way

Where you're from, it's a long way
