Lyrics

Shades of old Lucrezia Borgia
There's a devil in you tonight
And although my heart adores ya
My head says it ain't right
Right to let you make advances, oh no
Under normal circumstances I'd go
But oh, those fingers in my hair
That sly come-hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It's witchcraft
And I've got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do?
'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although I know it's strictly taboo
When you arouse a need in me
My heart says "Yes indeed" in me
Proceed with what you're leadin' me to
It's such an ancient pitch
But one I'd never switch
For there's no nicer witch than you
'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although I know it's strictly taboo
When you arouse a need in me
My heart says "Yes indeed" in me
Proceed with what you're leadin' me to
It's such an ancient pitch
But one I'd never switch
For there's no nicer witch than you
