Bewitched
Richard Alden His Piano and Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Call it superstitious lies
But I swear that I've seen something
And I've seen it in your eyes
On the psychic ether like some shamanist hoo-do
I wanna have an outer body experience with you
Now I ain't no seer but I've seen a thing or two
Don't need no mage to tell me
I can sense your magic
Across the spirit realm
I swear my ship's afloat with the devil at its helm.
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
I 've been bewitched by you
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
I've been bewitched by you
A spirit rapped upon my door and said that it's all true
I cast up my horoscope to try and find a clue
We'll meet up on the astral plane
Before the night is through

Call it mumbo-jumbo
I acknowledge that many people may dismiss what I'm about to say
Call it superstitious lies
Some may even go as far as to label me as dishonest and irrational
But I swear that I've seen something
Despite the skepticism of others, I truly believe that what I witnessed is real
And I've seen it in your eyes
I believe that what I saw is a reflection of the feelings you have for me
On the psychic ether like some shamanist hoo-do
The experience I had felt almost like a mystical, otherworldly occurrence
I wanna have an outer body experience with you
I desire to have a spiritual connection with you that transcends our physical bodies
Now I ain't no seer but I've seen a thing or two
I don't consider myself to have supernatural abilities, but I have had some inexplicable experiences
Don't need no mage to tell me
I don't require a magician or magic to validate what I've encountered
That I've been possessed by you
I feel as if you have an intense hold on my emotions and thoughts
I can sense your magic
There is an intangible quality to you that I'm deeply drawn to
Across the spirit realm
This isn't just a physical attraction, but an emotional and spiritual one
I swear my ship's afloat with the devil at its helm.
Being with you has taken me on a wild and thrilling ride I never expected
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
Musical interlude
I 've been bewitched by you
You have captivated my heart and mind in an inexplicable way
A spirit rapped upon my door and said that it's all true
I had a spiritual encounter that convinced me that our connection is real
I cast up my horoscope to try and find a clue
I even resorted to astrology in an attempt to understand what was happening to me
We'll meet up on the astral plane
I look forward to having the opportunity to connect with you on a spiritual level
Before the night is through
I anticipate that our connection will continue to be intense and life-changing
