She Talks Like a Smile

A new gal in town Fun to be around Donning white gown Sweet like a swan But now she's gone Yeah, she is now gone When they heard her talk, she talked like a smile When they saw her walk, she walked in style But the walk is gone and the talk is gone And the smile is gone and the style is gone She drove a truck That was tinted brown She had a trailer Parked on her lawn But the truck is gone And the trailer is gone When they heard her talk, she talked like a smile When they saw her walk, she walked in style But the walk is gone and the talk is gone And the smile is gone and the style is gone She was in a choir The town admired Rhythm she inspired Setting voice on fire She was so pretty Crafty and guile When they heard her talk, she talked like a smile When they saw her walk, she walked in style But the walk is gone and the talk is gone And the smile is gone and the style is gone Children laughed When she winked a lot Men did hound Hearing her sound But the sound is gone And the hound is gone When they heard her talk, she talked like a smile When they saw her walk, she walked in style But the walk is gone and the talk is gone And the smile is gone and the style is gone Rumor has it She has been found She has a truck That is tinted brown She has a trailer Parked on her lawn Two towns down When they hear her talk, she talks like a smile When they see her walk, she walks in style Her walk is style and her talk is smile Her walk is style and her talk is smile September 23, 2018

Hi Vijay, your creative style shines through once more in this little gem. A wonderful lyric my friend. I would say the instrumental would be Country or Latin. The whole lyric is a dance in words my friend. I enjoyed so much the easy going, fun lyrics. It made me sing in my mind. Another excellent write Vijay. A fave to me. Have a wonderful Thursday. Your friend always....Mike.
