Crystal Lyrics
Do you always trust your first initial feeling
Special knowledge holds truth bears believing
I turned around
And the water was closing all around
Like a glove
Like the love that had finally, finally found me
Then I knew
In the crystalline knowledge of you
Drove me thru the mountains
Thru the crystal-like clear water fountain
Drove me like a magnet
To the sea
How the faces of love have changed turning
the pages
And I have changed oh, but you...you remain
ageless
I turned around
And the water was closing all around
Like a glove
Like the love that had finally, finally found me
Then I knew
In the crystalline knowledge of you
Drove me thru the mountains
Thru the crystal-like clear water fountain
Drove me like a magnet
To the sea
Special knowledge holds truth bears believing
I turned around
And the water was closing all around
Like a glove
Like the love that had finally, finally found me
Then I knew
In the crystalline knowledge of you
Drove me thru the mountains
Thru the crystal-like clear water fountain
Drove me like a magnet
To the sea
the pages
And I have changed oh, but you...you remain
ageless
I turned around
And the water was closing all around
Like a glove
Like the love that had finally, finally found me
Then I knew
In the crystalline knowledge of you
Drove me thru the mountains
Thru the crystal-like clear water fountain
Drove me like a magnet
To the sea

I suspect this song is about loving somebody in such a way that transcends time and life experiences and finally having that love validated/realizing it’s reciprocated. May or may not be a romantic partner, but more than that, somebody you connect with in a deeply spiritual way. “Do you always trust your first initial feeling? Special knowledge holds true bears believing” what this communicates to me is she deeply connected with somebody right away but spent a significant amount of time questioning that connection, but it was so strong it engulfed her emotionally/spiritually it was hard to navigate through as she was “drowning” in it. “How the faces of love change turning the pages, and I have changed, oh but you, you remain ageless” tells me she’s moved on, been with other lovers and has had separate life experiences, but her memory of the other person and the intensity of those feelings for them hasn’t changed and defies age/time. The tone seems a little sad to me too...at once deep, raw and soul-touching and at the same time, sad, longing and slightly tragic. Like there just isn’t anything she can do to stop those feelings which are both beautiful and hurtful to experience.
it is beautiful.. gosh her voice is amazing..
Great song. It touches me. How can a voice be so suggesting?
For me it means that you are finally coming to grips with the fact you are in love no matter how much you want to keep it hidden. I love this song a lot
To me, I feel that this song could be about either the love of self, or the love found through a higher power. "The faces of love have changed turning the pages, but you..you remain ageless" could possibly be referring to some sort of unconditional love not found with another person but found through a higher power or to the love found within herself. I love this song so much.

i believe its about knowing your in love and overcoming all obstacles to be with that one special person
This song makes me want to cry! There's just something really emotional about it, and I love the violin and guitars in it. Beautiful.
Stevie said for the Rolling Stone magazine that she wrote this song about her father and that was after his tough heart operation, but he survived it and that's why she dedicated this song for him. And then those lines "You remain ageless" she put on every letter when she wrote to him.
I love this song!!! i cant believe no one has commented on it!!! Its such a beautiful song and i love the movie practical magic. To me this song is about finally finding your true love after coming through alot.
Possibly my favorite song ever
