Movement (A Sketch Based On a Picture)
Summer evening
Band is playing
That song is the encore
Starts to make her spirit soar
The music grabs her, she starts to sway
At first so delicate, then will gives way
18, skinny, blooming fast
Wanting to make this moment last
Body moving with such coy pleasure
Rhythmic ecstasy, hinting at a secret treasure
The way her hair shines in the setting sun
The way her eyes smile so brightly it stuns
Her dance is altogether fire
As I watch her from afar
How she burns, this secret dark star
Thinking of a joy I'll never know
Band is playing

Rhythmic ecstasy, hinting at a secret treasure
The way her hair shines in the setting sun
The way her eyes smile so brightly it stuns
Her dance is altogether fire
As I watch her from afar
How she burns, this secret dark star
Thinking of a joy I'll never know
