Me Wise Magic
Van Halen · Vol. 1-Best Of Van Halen
I know what you're thinkin'/What you're thinkin' is easy to see
I know what you're dreamin'/I have those same dreams
Reach up to the feet of God/Lookin' for a sign
It was right here all the time, time, time, time
I am you and you are me
Chorus:
(Do you believe)/Don't ya trust me/Me Wise Magic
Baby hold on
(If you could see)/Through my eyes/Me Wise Magic
Hold on
I feel you breathin'/Don't you trust me... trust me
I feel you agreein'/I know what you need
Don't you lie/Just you listen thru me
My words at best to you/A fortune coo-coo-coo-kie
(Where I'll be)
(Do you believe)/Don't ya trust me/Me Wise Magic
Yeah, yeah, oh, oh
(If you could see)/Straight through my eyes/Me Wise Magic
(Spoken:)
A little Zen/Headed your way
You'll get it/Halfway down the interstate
4 days from now/It all goes clear
A Buddhist riff/For your inner ear
(guitar solo)
(Do you believe)/Don't ya trust me/Me Wise Magic
Yeah yeah, oh yeah, whoa
(If you could see)/Straight through my eyes/Me Wise Magic
Whoa-oh-oh
(Do you believe)/Tell me you believe/Do you believe/Whoa, yeah
(If you could see)/Me Wise Magic
(Do you believe)/Me Wise Magic
(If you could see)/Me Wise Magic
I know what you're dreamin'/I have those same dreams
Reach up to the feet of God/Lookin' for a sign
It was right here all the time, time, time, time
I am you and you are me
Chorus:
(Do you believe)/Don't ya trust me/Me Wise Magic
Baby hold on
(If you could see)/Through my eyes/Me Wise Magic
Hold on
I feel you breathin'/Don't you trust me... trust me
