I was just a boy when I sat down
To watch the news on TV
I saw some ordinary slaughter
I saw some routine atrocity
My father said, don't look away
You got to be strong, you got to be bold, now
He said, that in the end it is beauty
That is going to save the world, now

And she moves among the sparrows
And she floats upon the breeze
She moves among the flowers
She moves something deep inside of me

I was walking around the flower show like a leper
Coming down with some kind of nervous hysteria
When I saw you standing there, green eyes, black hair
Up against the pink and purple wisteria
You said, hey, nature boy, are you looking at me
With some unrighteous intention?
My knees went weak,
I couldn't speak, I was having thoughts
That were not in my best interests to mention

And she moves among the flowers
And she floats upon the smoke
She moves among the shadows
She moves me with just one little look

You took me back to your place
And dressed me up in a deep sea diver's suit
You played the patriot, you raised the flag
And I stood at full salute
Later on we smoked a pipe that struck me dumb
And made it impossible to speak
As you closed in, in slow motion,
Quoting Sappho, in the original Greek

She moves among the shadows
She floats upon the breeze
She moves among the candles
And we moved through the days
and through the years

Years passed by, we were walking by the sea
Half delirious
You smiled at me and said, Babe
I think this thing is getting kind of serious
You pointed at something and said
Have you ever seen such a beautiful thing?
It was then that I broke down
It was then that you lifted me up again

She moves among the sparrows
And she walks across the sea
She moves among the flowers
And she moves something deep inside of me

She moves among the sparrows
And she floats upon the breeze
She moves among the flowers
And she moves right up close to me


Mirror lyrics:

And she moves right up close to me
She moves among the flowers
And she floats upon the breeze
She moves among the sparrows

And she moves something deep inside of me
She moves among the flowers
And she walks across the sea
She moves among the sparrows

It was then that you lifted me up again
It was then that I broke down
Have you ever seen such a beautiful thing?
You pointed at something and said
I think this thing is getting kind of serious
You smiled at me and said, Babe
Half delirious
Years passed by, we were walking by the sea

and through the years
And we moved through the days
She moves among the candles
She floats upon the breeze
She moves among the shadows

Quoting Sappho, in the original Greek
As you closed in, in slow motion,
And made it impossible to speak
Later on we smoked a pipe that struck me dumb
And I stood at full salute
You played the patriot, you raised the flag
And dressed me up in a deep sea diver's suit
You took me back to your place

She moves me with just one little look
She moves among the shadows
And she floats upon the smoke
And she moves among the flowers

That were not in my best interests to mention
I couldn't speak, I was having thoughts
My knees went weak,
With some unrighteous intention?
You said, hey, nature boy, are you looking at me
Up against the pink and purple wisteria
When I saw you standing there, green eyes, black hair
Coming down with some kind of nervous hysteria
I was walking around the flower show like a leper

She moves something deep inside of me
She moves among the flowers
And she floats upon the breeze
And she moves among the sparrows

That is going to save the world, now
He said, that in the end it is beauty
You got to be strong, you got to be bold, now
My father said, don't look away
I saw some routine atrocity
I saw some ordinary slaughter
To watch the news on TV
I was just a boy when I sat down
