Something in the Way She Moves fue inspirada por el sentimiento de asombro que James Taylor sintió por una mujer, y esta canción ayudó a impulsar su carrera, especialmente después de su presentación para Paul McCartney y George Harrison, lo que llevó a su firma con Apple Records.
There’s something in the way she moves Or looks my way, or calls my name That seems to leave this troubled world behind 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 that she’s been with me now And 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 she has the power to go where no one else can find me Yes, and to silently remind me Of the happiness and good times that I know, you know Well I said I just got to know that 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 much matter what they mean 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 that she’s been with me now And she’s been with me now Quite a long Long Time Yes, and I feel fine Transcribed by Gerard Koot (Amsterdam, The Netherlands) – july 2009
