And She Was - David Byrne

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 and she was right there with it (and she was)

The world was moving she was floating 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

Drifting this way and that

Not touching ground at all

Up above the yard

Chorus

She was glad about it… no doubt about it She isn’t sure where she’s gone

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

Chorus

Joining the world of missing persons (and she was)

Missing enough to feel alright (and she was)
