"The Spell That You Cast" Lyrics

The spell that you cast

Well, it seems to be wearing off fast

(The spell that you cast)

Come back baby, cos I don't think that I can last

(The spell that you cast)

 

And I wonder whether

You got some other kind of lover < grammar

That you like to please

Better than me

Don't think I can take it

How am I gonna break it?

The spell that you cast

The spell that you cast

 

The spell that you've woven

Well, it seems to be coming undone

(The spell that you cast)

Come back, Baby or at least tell me where you are going

(The spell that you cast)

 

And you know quite well

That I'm not the jealous kinda fella

But they look in your eyes

And they're all hypnotized

I'm gonna miss you madly

'Cos I love you sadly

The spell that you cast

The spell that you cast

 

Jimmy, come quickly ‘cos I feel quite sickly

(Oh, the spell that you cast)

You're like a gangster's Molly with a cannonade volley

(Oh, the spell that you cast)

(Oh, the spell that you cast)

Here we go…

 

Don't think I can take it

How am I gonna break it?

The spell that you cast
