"The Spell That You Cast" Lyrics
The spell that you cast
Well, it seems to be wearing off fast
(The spell that you cast)
Come back baby, cos I don't think that I can last
(The spell that you cast)
 
And I wonder whether
You got some other kind of lover That you like to please
Better than me
Don't think I can take it
How am I gonna break it?
The spell that you cast
The spell that you cast
 
The spell that you've woven
Well, it seems to be coming undone
(The spell that you cast)
Come back, Baby or at least tell me where you are going
(The spell that you cast)
 
And you know quite well
That I'm not the jealous kinda fella
But they look in your eyes
And they're all hypnotized
I'm gonna miss you madly
'Cos I love you sadly
The spell that you cast
The spell that you cast
 
Jimmy, come quickly ‘cos I feel quite sickly
(Oh, the spell that you cast)
You're like a gangster's Molly with a cannonade volley
(Oh, the spell that you cast)
(Oh, the spell that you cast)
Here we go…
 
Don't think I can take it
How am I gonna break it?
The spell that you cast
