Magic Woman

I walked away

From the life that I was leading

Because you said that you were needing me

And I hesitate

Because my mother said be careful

And my friends they said beware

But no no no

So I kept myself tight

Cause it wouldn't be nice

It would be unkind

For me to unwind

So I sip from my wine

Swallow my pride

And say nothing

Meanwhile my soul is drifting far away

You want this magic woman

To lay your bed at night

And to treat you right

But don't ask questions

(I'm a magic) Woman

But I'm not the one you seek

You see I value value me too

I'm a magic woman

And if I leave

And you look me in the eye

I'm a devil in disguise to you

But if I stay

And you say that you can't take it

And god forbid I lose my patience

Oh no no

And so I kept myself tight

Cause it wouldn't be nice

It would be unkind

For me to unwind

So I sip from my wine

Swallow my pride

And say nothing

Meanwhile my soul is drifting far away

You want this magic woman

To lay your bed at night

And to treat you right

But don't ask questions

(I'm a magic) Woman

But I'm not the one you seek

See I value value me too

I'm a magic woman
