Ariana Grande - Voodoo Love (Lyrics)

"Voodoo Love" is a song by Ariana Grande meant for her debut album, Yours Truly.

Background

"Voodoo Love" is one of Ariana's first original songs. She released a preview of this song on her Keek on November 8, 2012 and later played the full version on her live chat on November 12, 2012. However, Ariana did not officially release the song as a single at this time although many fans knew about it. Allan Peter Grigg, Pebe Sebert, and Ariana wrote the song together. Ariana also performed this song in the stage production A Snow White Christmas which had the lead role in. Ariana sang this song in a live chat in December 2013.

On November 6, 2015, Ariana posted on Snapchat that she would be releasing the long-awaited studio version of "Voodoo Love" as well as the original version of "Honeymoon Avenue" that same week. Several days later, Ariana apologizes to fans for the delay because she was still deciding what to do with the song. In February 2016, Ariana shut down rumors that "Voodoo Love" would be on Dangerous Woman but promised she would release it by the end of the year. Finally, the official audio of the song (along with "Honeymoon Avenue") was released on August 2, 2016 through her SoundCloud account.

Lyrics

I'm gonna mix a potion up
Make a special drink for you
Mm hmm
Just a little sip and you're never gonna know what hit you
Yeah
When I'm through
Aww yeah

Now I'm not talkin' bout movies
Don't need no happy end
I just wanna make you love me
And stay through thick and thin
I'm just gonna use some magic
Might feel a little drunk
And if you try to leave me
I'll lock you in the trunk

I'm gonna witch you I'll stick a pin right in you
My voodoo's so addicting
Three silver spoons of brandy wine
Just a frog and a little thyme and
Baby you'll be mine
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah

Boy I really knew you were the one
The moment that I saw your eyes
Mm hmm
Strong and wise and sweet and quiet
Yeah you're just my type
Mm hmm

Now I'm not talkin' bout movies
Don't need no happy end
I just wanna make you love me
And be my shiny prince
I'm just gonna use some magic
Might feel a little high
But we'll be so enchanted
And you'll feel so alive

I'm gonna witch you I'll stick a pin right in you
My voodoo's so addicting
Three silver spoons of brandy wine
Just a frog and a little thyme and
Baby you'll be mine
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah

I always get
Just what I want
And boy, I really want you now
So just say yes
Can't second guess the power of my voodoo love

I'm gonna witch you I'll stick a pin right in you
My voodoo's so addicting
Three silver spoons of brandy wine
Just a frog and a little thyme and
Baby you'll be mine
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah

I'm gonna witch you I'll stick a pin right in you
My voodoo's so addicting
Three silver spoons of brandy wine
Just a frog and a little thyme and
Baby you'll be mine
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah
With my voodoo love
Aw yeah
