Crystal Ball
Go West Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time i look in your eyes
You take me away
To a place that's so deep inside
There is no escape
Will you walk with me?
Will you show the way?
Will you say that you'll be mine?
Cause i don't need a dime to cast a spell
Somewhere deep inside a wishing well
Don't need a crystal ball
To tell me what to do
All i want is you
All i want is you

And sometimes when i look in your eyes
You take me away
To a place where i'm still a child
Innocent and brave
Will you walk with me?
Will you show the way?
Will you say that you'll be mine?

'cause i don't need a dime to cast a spell
Somewhere deep inside a wishing well
Don't need a crystal ball
To tell me what to do
All i want is you
I don't need a dime to cast a spell
I just want to ride the carousel
Don't need a crystal ball
To tell me what to do
All i want is you





Every time i look in your eyes
You take me away
