I heat up, I can't cool down You got me spinning 'Round and 'round 'Round and 'round and 'round it goes Where it stops nobody knows Every time you call my name I heat up like a burning flame Burning flame full of desire Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher Abra abracadabra I wanna reach out and grab ya Abracadabra Abracadabra You make me hot, you make me sigh You make me laugh, you make me cry Keep me burning for your love With the touch of a velvet glove Abra abracadabra I wanna reach out and grab ya Abracadabra Abracadabra I feel the magic in your caress I feel magic when I touch your dress Silk and satin, leather and lace Black panties with an angel's face I see magic in your eyes I hear the magic in your sighs Just when I think I'm gonna get away I hear those words that you always say Abra abracadabra I wanna reach out and grab ya Abracadabra Abracadabra Every time you call my name I heat up like a burning flame Burning flame full of desire Kiss me baby, let the fire get higher I heat up, I can't cool down My situation goes 'round and 'round I heat up, I can't cool down My situation goes 'round and 'round I heat up, I can't cool down My situation goes 'round and 'round
