David Byrne, Fatboy Slim, Allison Moorer - When She Passed By feat. Allison Moorer

Текст песни

I heard that you were getting married\nI always knew that you’d do well\nYou’re a legendary beauty\nFrom our small provincial town\nIlocos joined to Leyte\nTwo important families\nA glorious occasion\nA foretold destiny\nI followed in the morning papers\nHow exciting it has been\nThe courtship and the whirlwind romance\nFor the sweetest of beauty queens\nHe’s crazy for you\nWho wouldn’t be, I’m sure\nAnd nothing matters more than that\nAnd you’ll never be poor no more—\nHow she looked when she passed by\nHow she looked when she passed by\nI feel like I’m watching history\nLiving before my eyes\nMany years from now\nWe’ll recall just how\nHow she looked when she passed by\nI know that you are in there somewhere\nLetters get misplaced in the mail\nGuess that there was some confusion\nAmidst those throngs and swells\nDid you see me outside?\nDid you see me wave?\nWhen you passed in your car\nAh well, that’s okay—\nHow she looked when she passed by\nHow she looked when she passed by\nFeel like I’m watching history\nLiving before my eyes\nMany years from now\nWe’ll recall just how\nHow she looked when she passed by
