My baby's got Cinnamon Eyes
Sees me in the morning before I rise
He says I'll supervise your sunrise
Girl stay where you are
Just keep sleeping, sleeping like a star
And my baby's got Superman arms
Saves me when I find my way back to harm
I'm not saying he's a hero, I'm not saying he's flyin'
I'm just saying he's mine
My baby's got me and you know that
I like that best, I like that best yes
My baby's got me and you know that
It feels alright with those
Cinnamon Eyes on me
My baby's got a preacherman's heart
Lifts me up when mine is beating in the dark
Calm as morning he's the eye of the storm
He says you got to put your faith away in something warm
And my baby's got a Hollywood smile
Burns me every hour with that spotlight smile
Rolling up like a million bucks
And now he's heading down this road
It's just my luck
My baby's got me and you know that
I like that best, I like that best yes
My baby's got me and you know that
It feels alright with those
Cinnamon Eyes on me
Oh and if he ever leaves me
Baby I'd go up in flames, believe me
My baby's got me and you know that
I like that best, I like that best yes
My baby's got me and you know that
It feels alright with those
Cinnamon Eyes on me
My baby's got me and you know that
I like that best, I like that best yes
My baby's got me and you know that
It feels alright with those

Magic

He's a marshmallow man
No he don't like to fight
Always got something on his chin
Always got something on his mind
He says life is kind
Yeah life is kinda strange
But it's the loving and believing now
That gets me through the day
He said Don't forget
Don't let it get
You down
Cause you're Magic
You're Magic
Yeah you're Magic
And they just don't
See that yet
He's a high-fiving honey
No he don't like to frown
He's pretending the money is free
And the class voted he was a clown
He says it's fun
Yes it's so funny how
The grandest days go hand in hand
With plans unwritten down
He said Don't forget
Don't let it get
You down
Cause you're Magic
You're Magic
Yeah you're Magic
And they just don't
See that yet
He says life is kind
Yeah life is kinda strange
But it's the loving and believing now
That gets me through the day
He said Don't forget
Don't let it get
You down
Cause you're Magic
You're Magic
Yeah you're Magic
And they just don't
See that yet
Don't forget
You're magic, you're magic
Don't forget

She said I’m gonna get a new tattoo
Of a picture of Jesus
The world will say Touché
Girl your irony has finally pleased us
You can tell your daddy you’re an angel
Tell stories from an angle
Tell the devil you’re a rebel
Throw it all into a treble clef
But tell yourself you’ll never sell yourself
Short
Short
If we’re the beautiful people
Why do we feel so alone?
Here’s to everyone who wants to get a little bit high
You never meant to be stoned
You can fall in love until the morning
Fall apart without a warning
Follow through, follow the news
Or say Don’t tell me what to do
But always tell yourself you’ll never sell yourself
Short
Short
And while you’re pointing out the pictures in the stars
That are too hard to explain
You can take a trendy trip out way too far
But please come back the same
You can tell your daddy you’re an angel
Tell stories from an angle
Tell the devil you’re a rebel
Throw it all into a treble clef
But tell yourself you’ll never sell yourself
You gotta tell yourself you'll never sell yourself
Tell yourself you'll never sell yourself

Tangerines and tie-dye shirts
Love so deep it sometimes hurts
Votes are free when you're with me
You're one in a million, kid
You're one in a million, kid
Hugs and drugs and coffee mugs
You read my face with shoulder shrugs
And we like to speak in subtle syllables
And secret smiles
Go on go on go on go on
Dream your fancy dreams
Go on go on go on go on
Gently down the stream
Cause you know
You do alright without me
And I'm alright without you
But I wanna know
Do you think about me
Cause when you're right beside me
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Pain and rain I was going insane
Over what's-his-name, oh they're all the same
Blue-eyed face full of little white lies
Surprise, surprise
Duct tape sheets together, secret
Password promise me you'll keep it
And don't go treating any
Stranger the way you treat me
Go on go on go on go on
Dream your fancy dreams
Go on go on go on go on
Gently down the stream
Cause you know
You do alright without me
And I'm alright without you
But I wanna know
Do you think about me
Cause when you're right beside me
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Go on go on go on go on
Go and treat a stranger how you treat me
Go on go on go on go on
You're an angel underneath it
Cause you know
You do alright without me
And I'm alright without you
But I wanna know
Do you think about me
Cause when you're right beside me
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream
