The Spell You Didn't Know You Wanted
I didn't call your name tonight, Didn't need to, you were already near. Candle smoke and amber light, Something changed when you appeared. I let the silence linger long, Let your curiosity lead the way. You thought you came here for a song, But your heartbeat gave you away. I won't chase you, darling, I won't ask you to stay. I'll just leave a little magic Where your thoughts can lose their way. You didn't know you wanted me, Didn't know you'd lean this close. Didn't know your heart could wander Where your careful mind said no. I never had to cast a spell, Never had to make you choose. You opened up the door yourself— Now tell me, what have you got to lose? Velvet shadows cross your skin, Golden fire dancing in your eyes. You keep pretending you're immune, But I can hear it in your sighs. Every word I leave unsaid Seems to follow you into the night. Funny how a little mystery Can make a restless heart ignite. I won't touch the flame, dear, I'll let you feel the heat. Some temptations taste much sweeter When you think they're yours to seek. You didn't know you wanted me, Didn't know you'd lean this close. Didn't know your heart could wander Where your careful mind said no. I never had to cast a spell, Never had to make you choose. You opened up the door yourself— Now tell me, what have you got to lose? Maybe love doesn't knock twice, Maybe it slips beneath the door. Maybe every guarded heart Has a secret wanting more. And maybe I'm the little thought You weren't expecting to find— The one that follows you home And stays awake inside your mind. You didn't know you wanted me, But your heart knew all along. You didn't know you needed this Until you heard it in the song. I never had to cast a spell, Never had to make you choose. You came a little closer, darling— And now you know what you can't lose. So don't call it magic… Don't call it desire… Just blame the moonlight And the way I look at you. You didn't know you wanted me… Until you did.
