Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This magic moment
So different and so new
Was like any other
Until I kissed you
And then it happened
It took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too
By the look in your eyes
Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I want I have
Whenever I hold you tight
This magic moment
While you lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time
Oh...
Oh...
Mm...
Sweeter than wine
Softer than the summer night
Everything I want I have
Whenever I hold you tight
This magic moment
While your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
Forever till the end of time
Oh...
Magic moment...




Magic moment...
Magic moment...
