She Walks In Three-Four Time

Ed Rashed


She walks straight here from Saturn everyday 
She walks by you and everyone that way 
The dust she raises turns to misty dreams 
This beauty Walks In Three-Four Time it seems 
She doesn't speak the languages we know 
You cannot measure by the status quo 
The songs she sings are not the kind you hear 
But beauty Walks In Three-Four Time it's clear 

The rhythm's three times six by four times three 
The beat just bounces by relentlessly 
You thought you knew the meaning of sublime 
But then you saw her walking by In Three-Four Time 

You cannot follow where she seems to dance 
She holds off all admirers with a glance 
It ain't no use to try and hold her eye 
Her Walk Away In Three-Four Time is her reply 

The dreams she makes you dream are true somewhere 
An other-worldly light comes off her hair 
Her trail of broken hearts must be a crime 
It's all because She Walks In Three-Four Time 

The rhythm's three times six by four times three 
The beat just bounces by relentlessly 
You thought you knew the meaning of sublime 
But then you saw her walking by In Three-Four Time 

I swear you'll never find her secret place 
You'll never fathom all her kinds of grace 
You'll lose your mind before you understand 
She Walks In Three-Four Time and never lights on land 

Her face could launch a thousand galaxies 
Her perfume brings whole armies to their knees 
She never seems to notice what's behind 
It's just the way that Walk In Three-Four Time's designed
