Movement

Album: Wasteland, Baby! (2018)

  • I still watch you when you're groovin'
    As if through water from the bottom of a pool
    You're movin' without movin'
    And when you move, I'm moved
    You are a call to motion
    There, all of you a verb in perfect view
    Like Jonah on the ocean
    When you move, I'm moved

    When you move
    I'm put to mind of all that I wanna be
    When you move
    I could never define all that you are to me

    So move me, baby
    Shake like the bough of a willow tree
    You do it naturally
    Move me, baby

    You are the rite of movement
    Its reasonin' made lucid and cool
    I know it's no improvement
    When you move, I move
    You're less Polunin leapin'
    Or Fred Astaire in sequins
    Honey, you, you're Atlas in his sleepin'
    And when you move, I'm moved

    When you move
    I can recall somethin' that's gone from me
    When you move
    Honey, I'm put in awe of somethin' so flawed and free

    So move me, baby
    Shake like the bough of a willow tree
    You do it naturally
    Move me, baby
    So move me, baby
    Like you've nothin' left to lose
    And nothin' to prove
    Move me, baby

    Ooh, ooh, ooh
    Oh baby, oh baby
    Move like grey skies
    Move like a bird of paradise
    Move like an odd sight come out at night

    Move me, baby
    Shake like the bough of a willow tree
    You do it naturally
    Move me, baby
    So move me, baby
    Like you've nothin' left to lose
    And nothin' to prove
    Move me, baby
    Move me, baby
    Shake like the bough of a willow tree
    You do it naturally
    Move me, baby Writer/s: Andrew Hozier-Byrne
