Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You Give Me Change in The Way I Feel,
Baby It's A Magic Look, Look, Look,
You Give Me Change in The Way I Feel,
Baby I Want You To Know, You're The One That I Hold Close,
To My Heart Forever More,
Sweet Kiss Like Chocolate Rain,
You're The One For Me, You're The One For Me,
You Taught Me Things That I Thought I'd Never Knew
(It's Right Before Me)
'Cause Baby There Couldn't Be No Substitute
(For What's Before Me)
Baby It's A Magic Look, Look, Look,
You Give Me Change in The Way I Feel,
Baby It's A Magic Look, Look, Look,
You Give Me Change in The Way I Feel,
Make Me Wanna Say, Ooohhh, Ooohhh, Ooohhh,
I Would Never Let You Go,
When The Candle Runs Out And You Know I Can't See
No Need To Worry 'Cause You Know I Will Be Your In A Hurry,
No Worry, For My Mind
'Cause You Knox That I Can Be Your Pier, Your Motivation
I Can Be Everything You Want And More, Everything, Everything
I'll Teach You Things That You Thought You'd Never Knew
(It's Right Before Me)
'Cause Baby There Couldn't Be No Substitute
(For What's Before Me)
Baby It's A Magic Look, Look, Look,
You Give Me Change in The Way I Feel,
Baby It's A Magic Look, Look, Look,
You Give Me Change in The Way I Feel,
