lyrics:

Well in the shadows of my mind

There lives a lady I’m lookin’ to find

Waves of that chestnut just a hangin’ down

And ruby lips curvin’ all around

Oh, the power of your curse

And those spells you produce

Ignites with your laugh

That wicked witchcraft

You use

The wicked witchcraft you use

There is a river of want that drowns me so

Takes all my light to the big black hole

N’ that subtle gaze just captures me

Behind her bars, I’m never free

Oh the power of your curse

And those spells you produce

Ignites with your laugh

That wicked witchcraft

You use

The wicked witchcraft you use

Well, she takes me to the deep

She brings me to the edge

With all those spells to seduce

Possessed by a dream

Stopped by a storm

It’s that wicked witchcraft

You use

The wicked witchcraft you use

Possessed by a dream

Stopped by a storm

It’s that wicked witchcraft

You use

The wicked witchcraft you use

Yeah, you use

liner notes:

I wrote this song with Julie, my partner in mind, and how she possesses me in every way with her beauty – the wicked witchcraft she uses on me – so effortlessly. I am and always will be under Julie’s spell.
