And she was lying in the grass
And she could hear the highway breathing.
And she could see a nearby factory
She's making sure she is not dreaming.
See the lights of a neighbor's
house now she's starting to rise.
Take a minute to concentrate and she
opens up her eyes.
The world was moving
she was right there with it and she was -
The world was moving
she was floatin' above it and she was - and she
was.
And she was drifting through the backyard
And she was taking off her dress.
And she was moving very slowly
rising up above the earth.
Moving into the universe and she's drifting this
way and that.
Not touching the ground at all and she's up above
the yard.
The world was moving
she was right there with it and she was -
The world was moving
she was floatin' above it and she was -
And she was glad about it
no doubt about it
She isn't sure about what she's done
No time to think about what to tell them
No time to think about what she's done and she
was -
And she was looking at herself
and things were looking like a movie.
She had a pleasant elevation
she's moving out in all directions.
The world was moving
she was right there with it and she was -
The world was moving
she was floatin' above it and she was -
Joining the world of missing persons and she was
-
Missing enough to feel alright and she was - and
she was -
And she was - and she was - and she was -
and she was - and she was.
Talking Heads - one of my favorites!
