She Walks Beautiful
Lyrics: where would we be without them? Thank-you for asking and this is still my favourite track on the (much under-rated) album 'My Paper Made Men' and was, as far as I know, never a single but in these downloading days who knows what might happen.
She Walks Beautiful
She walks alone
And when she loves her love is her own
She don't need a man
She won't stand by what she can't stand
Like whited walls
You all stand in line
And watch her pass you by
She knows her sins
With humility and reaches for the light.
With aching knees and back
The weight is hard to bear
But she carries it with a smile.
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
By herself
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
By herself
She walks alone
She's not invited to parties
So she throws her own
All alone to feel the highs
She bears the lows.
She doesn't call out like the others
In the night
In despair and loneliness.
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
By herself
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
By herself
Adieh, adieh, adieh. Aow!
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
She walks beautiful
By herself.
Adieh, adieh, adieh. Aow!
This really should have been a single. It would make a rather interesting BBC Radio 1 'live lounge' cover. The thing is I'm not sure who I'd wish to hear attempting a makeover - it could go either way.
