Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Magic is the moonlight
On this lover's dream night
As I see the moonlight
Shining in your eyes

Can't resist their power
In this moon lit hour
Love being any flower
This is paradise

Living in the splendor
Of your kiss so tender
Makes my heart surrender
To your love divine

Magic is the moonlight
More than any dream night
Magic is the moonlight
For it made you mine

Living in the splendor
Of your kiss so tender
Makes my heart surrender
To your love divine

Magic is the moonlight
More than any dream night
Magic is the moonlight
For it made you mine





Magic is the moonlight
For it made you mine
