Magic
The Honor Society Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Summer it turns me upside down,
Summer, summer, summer its like a marry go around
I see you under the midnight
Always sat like a rose
High shoes with the cleats clickin'
But then you let me go
But then you let me go
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you tonight

I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
Yeah

Uh oh
It's Magic
When I'm with you
Uh oh
It's Magic
You know it's true
I got a hold on you

So adjusted under sideways down
I know your getting adjusted
And you can't calm down
I see you under the midnight
Love torches in your eyes
How far can you take it
Till' you realize
There's magic in your eyes

I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you tonight

I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you

Uh oh
It's Magic
When I'm with you
Uh oh
It's Magic
You know it's true
I got a hold on you

I got a hold on you
I got a hold on you

Uh oh
It's Magic
When I'm with you
Uh oh
It's Magic




You know it's true
Just a little magic baby
