  • I don't want to tell you what you already know
    This is me you that you're talking to
    And anything I say, I have said before
    When will it be enough?

    There's something, and my mind shifts, and in my eye
    I slip on my ears
    And I find I am face to face with none other than me
    I've got the mirror up against the marquee

    And all it reads is, I am fine, I am divine
    But there is a wild side going on behind the sign

    I'm looking for the magic
    I'm feeling for the right way out of mind
    Looking for the alchemy to release me from my maze
    I am makin myself

    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)
    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)
    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)

    Now I do not wanna come off like I am
    I'm loosing my head
    But the shadow inside of me
    Is begging for direction to illicit city
    Oh illicit city

    I wanna do better than to fight this life 'cause it is a dream
    I wonder if the wild animals livin' in me
    Well will they ever find freedom

    All I fear is what I fear, am I a Leviathan?
    I feel the risin' of the cove, my ocean opens

    I'm looking for the magic
    I'm feeling for the right way out of mind
    Looking for the alchemy to release me from my maze
    I am makin myself

    I'm looking for the magic
    I'm feeling for the right way out of mind
    Looking for the alchemy to release me from my maze
    I am makin myself

    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)
    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)
    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)

    I wanna be bad
    I wanna be bad
    I wanna be bad
    I wanna be bad

    My shadow must find a window
    In the wall

    I'm looking for the magic
    I'm feeling for the right way out of mind (right way out of mind)
    Looking for the alchemy to release me from my maze
    I am makin myself

    I'm looking for the magic
    I'm feeling for the right way out of mind (right way out of mind)
    Looking for the alchemy to release me from my maze
    I am makin myself

    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)
    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic)
    I'm lookin' for the magic (I'm lookin' for the magic) Writer/s: Joan Wasser
