피그말리온효과 Pt. 2
Rich Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Old black magic that you weave so well
Those icy fingers up and down my spine
The same old witch craft when your eyes meet mine
Same old tingle that I feel inside
Then the elevator starts it ride
Down and down I go
Like a leaf caught in a tide
I should stay away but what can I do
I hear your name and I'm a flame
Flame, flame of desire
Only your kiss can put out the fire
Oh you're the lover I have waiting for
Your the mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine
Down and down I go
Round and round I go
In a spin, lovin' the spin I'm in
Under the old black magic called love
In a spin lovin' the spin I'm in
Under the old black magic called love
In a spin lovin' the spin I'm in
Under the old black magic called love
I should stay away but what can I do
I hear your name and I'm a flame
Flame, flame of desire
Only your kiss can put out the fire
Oh you are the lover I have waited for
Your the mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine
Down and down I go
Round and round I go
In a spin, lovin' the spin I'm in
Under the old black magic called love
The song "That Old Black Magic" by Richard Bliwas is about the overwhelming power of love and desire that can feel like a magical spell. The lyrics describe the physical sensations of being in love, with "icy fingers up and down my spine" and "the same old tingle that I feel inside." When the singer is near their beloved and their eyes meet, they feel like they are under a spell, unable to resist the pull of the other person.
The metaphor of being caught in a tide, unable to escape, further emphasizes the idea that love can be all-consuming and overpowering. Despite knowing that they should stay away, the singer can't help themselves, and every time they hear their lover's name, they feel a flame of desire. The only thing that can put out this fire is the lover's kiss.
The song's chorus repeats the idea that the singer is caught in a spin, loving the feeling of being in love, and under the spell of "old black magic called love." The repeated lyrics and underlying music create a sense of being caught in a cycle of desire and euphoria.
