Spellbound
The Morning Line Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How do you just know
How to get to me baby
Words aren't only words
When they're from you they're
Heard
When you say
You really love me
Something doesn't click
Maybe it's a spell
That you've got me under
Something's going down
Turn my world around
I woke up and I found
I was spellbound.
Spellbound
So
Spellbound
So wicked
Spellbound
And your prison
Feels good so
Spellbound
Your kisses
Spellbound
Against my wishes
Spellbound
I wouldn't help it if I could
Metaphysical past the visual
You touch the heart of me
Night turns in to day
Shadows fade away
When you say you
Really love me
Maybe it's a trick
Something doesn't click
Maybe it's a spell
That you've got me under
Something's going down
Turn my world around
I woke up and I found
I was spellbound
Spellbound
So
Spellbound
So wicked
Spellbound
And your prison
Feels good so
Spellbound
Your kisses
Spellbound
Against my wishes
Spellbound
I wouldn't help it if I could
Maybe it's a trick
Something doesn't click
Maybe it's a spell
That you've got me under
Something's going down
Turn my world around
I woke up and I found
I was spellbound
Spellbound
So
Spellbound
So wicked
Spellbound
And your prison
Feels good so
Spellbound
Your kisses
Spellbound
Against my wishes
Spellbound
I wouldn't help it if I could
