Walked Her Way Down - Crowded House

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
