Lady Gaga "Abracadabra" Lyrics
Abracadabra, abracadabra Abracadabra, abracadabra
Pay the toll to the angels Drawing circles in the clouds Keep your mind on the distance When the devil turns around
Hold me in your heart tonight In the magic of the dark moonlight Save me from this empty fight In the game of life Like a poem said by a lady in red You hear the last few words of your life With a haunting glance, now you're both in a trance It's time to cast your spell on the night
Abracadabra, amor-ooh-na-na Abracadabra, morta-ooh-ga-ga Abracadabra, abra-ooh-na-na In her tongue, she said, "Death or love tonight"
Abracadabra, abracadabra Abracadabra, abracadabra Feel the beat under your feet, the floor's on fire Abracadabra, abracadabra
Choose the road on the west side As the dust flies, watch it burn Don't waste time on a feeling Your depression won't return
Hold me in your heart tonight In the magic of the dark moonlight Save me from this empty fight In the game of life Like a poem said by a lady in red You hear the last few words of your life With a haunting glance, now you're both in a trance It's time to cast your spell on the night
Abracadabra, amor-ooh-na-na Abracadabra, morta-ooh-ga-ga Abracadabra, abra-ooh-na-na In her tongue, she said, "Death or love tonight"
Abracadabra, abracadabra Abracadabra, abracadabra Feel the beat under your feet, the floor's on fire Abracadabra, abracadabra
Phantom of the dance floor, come to me Sing for me a sinful melody
Abracadabra, amor-ooh-na-na Abracadabra, morta-ooh-ga-ga Abracadabra, abra-ooh-na-na In her tongue, she said, "Death or love tonight"
