Golden light above you, show me where you're from
The magic in your eye bewitches all you gaze upon
You stand up on your hill and they be bop all around you
They wonder where you're from, they wonder where I found you?

Oh, my love, it's a long way
Where you're from it's a long way?

I tried to understand you, I tried to love you right
The way you smile and touch me always sets my heart alight
Your lips are like a fire burning through my soul
And people ask me where you're from? They really wanna know

Oh, my soul, it's a long way
Where you're from it's a long way?

Magic woman wreckin' up my soul
Things you tell me have never been told
Magic woman I don't know
Electric before me I love you so, I love you so

You're racing like a fireball, dancing like a ghost
You're Gemini and I don't know which one I like the most
My head is gettin' broken and my mind is gettin' bust
But now I'm comin' with you down the road of golden dust

Oh my love, it's a long way
Where you're from it's a long way?

The golden light above you, show me where you're from
The magic in your eye bewitches all you gaze upon
Dtand up on your hill and they be bop all around you
They wonder where you're from, oh yeah, they wonder where I found you?

Oh my love, it's a long way
Where you're from it's a long way?
