Paul Simon - She Moves On Lyrics






I feel good
It's a fine day
The way the sun hits off the runway
A cloud shifts
The plane lifts
She moves on

But feel the bite
Whenever you believe that
You'll be lost and love will find you
When the road bends
And the song ends
She moves on

I know the reason I
Feel so blessed
My heart still splashes
Inside my chest, but she
She is like a top
She cannot stop
She moves on

A sympathetic stranger
Lights a candle in the middle of the night
Her voice cracks
She jumps back
But she moves on

She says "Ooh my storybook lover
You have underestimated my power
As you shortly will discover"

The I fall to my knees
Shake a rattle at the skies
I'm afraid that I'll be taken
Abandoned, forsaken
In her cold coffee eyes

She can't sleep now
The moon is red
She fights a fever
She burns in bed
She needs to talk so
We take a walk
Down in the maroon light

She says "Maybe these emotions are
As near to love as love will ever be"
So I agree

Then the moon breaks
She takes the corner that's all she takes
She moves on

She says "Ooh my storybook lover
You have underestimated my power
As you shortly will discover"

Then I fall to my knees
I grow weak, I go slack
As if she captured the breath of my
voice in a bottle
And I can't catch it back

But I feel good
It's a fine day
The way the sun hits off the runway
A cloud shifts
The plane lifts
She moves on

    sad that people have lost the taste of real music. Modern music now has electro beats that don't even have words or meaning. Unfortunate


    PS Im only 13 btw

    S.... C....

    There are plenty of awful songs with 'real' instruments and fantastic art using electronic instruments. Don't close your mind when you're still young

    S.... C....

    I see what you're saying but most of Modern Music is just plain garbage. Rap is one of the banes of my existence. That's really what I mean by "Modern Music" I listen to AJR and Imagine Dragons but they have actual MEANING and a message behind most of their songs

  2. T.... R....

    One of the best albums ever

  3. w.... ....

    "Yeah. I'm a bitch."
    Carrie Fisher on this song.

    Music and lyrics = gracias. makes me think of flying into rio.

  12. J.... W....

    Obviously he ripped off this Paul McCartney tune from the unreleased Return to Pepperland from years before.

    J.... W....

    Jimmy Wiggians lol good one

    J.... W....

    Paul McCartney was a bell end. He never wrote anything as stunning as this your such a cock

    J.... W....

    @princealbert5- Paul is still with us; he has written some beautiful music; it's all about individual predilection. Paul Simon is great but a lot of his songs do sound very similar to one another.

  13. J.... R....

    he wrote this song for Carrie Fisher

    J.... R....

    Carrie confirmed that this one is also about her.

    J.... R....

    @dwmohs And a couple of thoughts about her are also in Graceland.

    J.... R....

    He wrote this song about... not for her. Lol

    J.... R....

    “Cold coffee eyes...”
