Various Artists Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Believe me when I tell
This magic moment
So different and so new
Not like any other until I kiss you

And then it happened
It took me by surprise
I knew that you've felt it too

By the look in your eyes

Sweeter than wine
Longer than the summer night
Everything I want, I have
Whenever I'm holdin' you tight

Believe me when I tell you, yeah

Sweeter than wine
Longer than the summer night
Everything I want, I have
Whenever I'm holding you tight

This magic moment
While your lips are close to mine

Will last forever, forever till the end of time
Oh magic, oh
