When She Walks In The Room Lyrics - The Bride Stripped Bare - Bryan Ferry

When she walks in the room 

Then you know 

Why your date says it's late 

Time to go 

And you know you can't leave 

You must stay 

'til her laughter has drifted away 

So you talk to the walls 

Always know 

'cause they've seen it all 

And heart it all before 

And your fair weather friends 

Fail to speak 

They're so afraid still waters run deep 

And they're don't understand 

Or perceive 

That you can't see the woods for the trees 

Christmas trees you were sure 

Weren't the sort 

To build up your hopes 

Then sell you short 

Yeah to build you up 

And sell you short 

All your life you were taught to believe 

Then a moment of truth - you're deceived 

All the wine in your life's all dried up 

Is now the time to give up?
