Cold late night so long ago
When I was not so strong you know
A pretty man came to me
Never seen eyes so blue
You know I could not run away
It seemed we'd seen each other in a dream
It seemed like he knew me
He looked right through me, yeah
"Come on home, girl", he said with a smile;
"You don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile,
But try to understand, try to understand
Try try try to understand, I'm a magic man."
Winter nights we sang in tune
Played inside the months of moon
Never think of never
Let this spell last forever
Summer over passed to fall
Tried to realized it all
Mama says she's worried
Growing up in a hurry, yeah
"Come on home, girl" mama cried on the phone;
"Too soon to lose my baby yet, my girl should be at home!"
But try to understand, try to understand
Try try try to understand
He's a magic man, mama, ah, he's a magic man"
"Come on home, girl", he said with a smile;
"I cast my spell of love on you a woman from a child"
But try to understand, try to understand, oh oh
Try, try to understand. Try try try to understand
He's a magic man, oh yeah, he's got magic hands
"Come on home, girl", he said with a smile
"You don't have love me yet, let's get high awhile."
But try to understand, try to understand
Try try try to understand, he's a magic man, yeah, oh!
