Walked Her Way Down

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



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



The 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



And 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 won't feel the weightless grasp



Upon my heavy life, yeah
