Crowded House - Walked Her Way Down lyrics

She walked her way down It brought my mind back From where I was trapped How long will it take For tension to break Feel it sliding off Shimmy-like cloth I left on the ground And I know what the answer is And I'm happy to be here tonight But when you're in the moment Everything you want is right But before she takes a step She's waiting for the beat to arrive And the drummer's counting out the start She walked her way down In silver and black Tension is snapped I picked up the trace A scent I can't place Remembering desire Higher and high Lift off the ground And I know what the answer is But I'm happy to be here tonight And when you're in the moment Everything you want is right From before she takes a step She's waiting for the beat to arrive The drummer makes the same mistake And my eyes are on the shape That is captured in the light All went quiet on the floor When she walked her way down As we happen to be here tonight But don't we make a beautiful sight And when you're in the moment Everything you want is right But before she takes a step She's waiting for the beat to arrive If you're tamed by all the pressure Everything you want to become The drummer always comes in late And my eyes are on the shake That is captured in the light And I want to feel the weightless grasp Upon my heavy life
