This title is a cover of That Old Black Magic (Man Voice) as made famous by 1940s Standards

That old black magic has me in its spell
That old black magic that you weave so well
Icy fingers running down my spine
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine
The same old tingle that I feel inside
Then that elevator starts its ride
And down and down I go 'round and 'round I go
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide
I should stay away but what can I do
I hear your name and I'm aflame
Aflame with such a burning desire
That only your kiss can put out the fire
Boy you're the lover
I have waited for
You're the mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine
Baby down and down I go 'round and 'round I go
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide
I should stay away but what can I do
I hear your name and I'm aflame
Aflame with such a burning desire
That only your kiss can put out the fire
Oh you are the lover
I have waited for
You're the mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine
Baby down and down I go 'round and 'round I go
In a spin I'm lovin' the spin that I'm in
I'm under that old black magic called love
