Moon Magic
Witchfynde Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bright lights shining in your eyes,
You're off on a night ride now
She's got us all hypnotised,
Have you ever tried to hold her
Could you gaze at her forever,
If you cross your heart of gold
There's no reason to doubt it,
There's no reason to doubt it,
It's moon magic, moon magic,
Some night when you're all alone,
And the lights playing tricks,
Don't be afraid if you turn cold
You'll know it's only moon magic,
It's the force of the heavens,
Always looking after you,
Ask the man, Ask Isis,
It's moon magic, it's nothing new,
[Repeat chorus]
Moon, moon, moon magic
The lyrics of the song "Moon Magic" by Witchfynde are an ode to the mystical power of the moon. The song begins by describing the moon shining above the stars and the mesmerizing effect it has on people. The moon is described as having the power to mesmerize and hypnotize, which is why everyone is under its spell. The second verse of the song is an invitation to look at the moon and try to comprehend its magic. The lyrics suggest that if you look at the moon long enough, you will find yourself lost in its mystical power. The third verse of the song speaks of the moon and its influence when one is alone. The moon's power is such that it can make one feel cold even when everything around them is warm. However, it is nothing to fear, for the moon's magic is always there to protect you. The chorus of the song speaks of the moon's magic being unequaled and old as time itself.

See the moon above the stars
Witness the moon shining over the stars
Bright lights shining in your eyes,
Radiant light illuminating your vision,
You're off on a night ride now
Setting off on a nocturnal journey
She's got us all hypnotised,
The moon has entranced us all
Have you ever tried to hold her
Have you endeavored to contain its beauty
Could you gaze at her forever,
Can you stare at it unendingly
If you cross your heart of gold
If you make an honest promise
She'll cross your palm with silver,
She'll reward you with wealth
There's no reason to doubt it,
It's undeniably true
It's moon magic, moon magic,
It's the enchantment of the moon
Some night when you're all alone,
At times of solitude
And the lights playing tricks,
When the illumination is deceiving
Don't be afraid if you turn cold
Fear not if you feel a chill
You'll know it's only moon magic,
The source of the chill is only the moon's magic
It's the force of the heavens,
It's the power of the celestial realm
Always looking after you,
It's consistently watching over you
Ask the man, Ask Isis,
Inquire about it with deities
It's moon magic, it's nothing new,
It's the moon's magic, it's a well-known truth
[Repeat chorus]
The chorus repeats
Moon, moon, moon magic
The magic of the moon

This whole entire record is a masterpiece along the debut and the 3rd, I didn’t like lords of sin, it had terrible mix, if the mix on that album wasn’t so bad, lords of sin would of got better reception, this song is my favourite off the record
