Strange Magic Lyrics

You're sailing softly through the sun
In a broken stone age dawn
You fly, so high, I get a

Chorus:
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

Chorus: repeat

Oh I'm never gonna be the same again
Now I see the way it's got to end
Sweet Dream, Sweet Dream

Chorus: repeat

Awesome song - really simple for me, it's that feeling you get when you first fall in love. We've all had it, it disappears of course - and we all yearn for it.

ahhh I love ELO and LOVE this song. When I heard it in the prom scene of The Virgin Suicides I just thought "wow this is the perfect song for this!". It's mysterious and so beautiful GAH I just adore it. "walking meadows in my mind" - it's like she takes up all his thoughts, she's walking through them constantly... and magic is a great way to describe love...

This song is mesmerizing! I remember listening to it and just feeling myself swept away thinking about high school love. A beautiful song!

improbable but interesting Beatles connection: 1970 Beatles' annual Christmas record to their fan club was (understandably) recorded seperately. John just turned on a tape recorder & strolled around the Queen's Gardens with Yoko and chatted.

Yoko: the air is so crisp and all...it's like a strange magic invading the processes of our thinking...

Very improbable, but I'd also wager Jeff collected all those Christmas records...
