Walked Her Way Down Lyrics - Time On Earth - 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 

Photos 

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
