Something In The Way He Moves - Bobbie Gentry

There’s something in the way she moves

Or looks my way or calls my name

That seems to leave this troubled world behind

And if I’m feeling down and blue

Or troubled by some foolish game

She always seems to make me change my mind

And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now

She’s around me now, almost all the time

And if I’m well you can tell she’s been with me now

She’s been with me now quite a long, long time and I feel fine

It isn’t what she’s got to say

Or how she thinks or where she’s been

To me the words are nice, the way they sound

I like to hear them best that way

It doesn’t matter what they mean

Well, she says them mostly just to calm me down

And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now

She’s around me now, almost all the time

And if I’m well you can tell she’s been with me now

She’s been with me now quite a long, long time and I feel fine

Every now and then the things I lean on, lose their meaning

And I find myself careening

Into places where I should not let me go, no

She has the power to go where no one else can find me

And to silently remind me of the happiness

And the good times that I know, got to know

It isn’t what she’s got to say

Or how she thinks or where she’s been

To me the words are nice, the way they sound

I like to hear them best that way

It doesn’t matter what they mean

Well, she says them mostly just to calm me down

And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now

She’s around me now, almost all the time

And if I’m well you can tell she’s been with me now

She’s been with me now quite a long, long time and I feel fine
