I love the sun when it silouhettes
I like her better when she walks away

She plays castanets, she works without a net
I like her better when she walks away
She turns me on like a pick up truck
I like her better when she walks away
I love the sun shinin’ through her dress
I like her better when she walks away
I like her hair in a tangled mess
I like her better when she walks away
