You've got the magic touch It makes me glow so much It casts a spell, it rings a bell The magic touch Oh when I feel your charm It's like a fourth alarm You make me thrill so much You've got the magic touch If I go reeling, uh-oh, I'm feeling the glow (Uh-oh) But where can I go from you I didn't know too much And then I felt your touch And now I've learned I can return Magic touch If I go reeling, uh-oh, I'm feeling the glow (Uh-oh) But where can I go from you I didn't know too much And then I felt your touch And now I've learned I can return The magic touch
