You're sailing softly through the sun
In a broken Stone Age dawn
You fly so high
I get a strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind
Making waves across my time
Oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
Oh, I'm never gonna be the same again
Now I've seen the way it's got to end
Sweet dream, sweet dream.
Strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
It's magic
It's magic
It's magic.
Strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
Strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, what a strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
Strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, what a strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic
You know, I got a strange magic
Yeah, I got a strange magic
Ooh, strange magic
In a broken Stone Age dawn
You fly so high
I get a strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind
Making waves across my time
Oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
Oh, I'm never gonna be the same again
Now I've seen the way it's got to end
Sweet dream, sweet dream.
Strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
It's magic
It's magic
It's magic.
Strange magic
Oh, what a strange magic
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
Strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, what a strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic.
Strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, what a strange magic (strange magic)
Oh, it's a strange magic
Got a strange magic
Got a strange magic
You know, I got a strange magic
Yeah, I got a strange magic
Ooh, strange magic
