Poetry in Motion Songtext
von Johnny Tillotson

When I see my baby
What do I see?
Poetry
Poetry in motion

Poetry in motion
Walkin′ by my side
Her lovely locomotion
Keeps my eyes open wide

Poetry in motion
See her gentle sway
A wave out on the ocean
Could never move that way

I love every movement
There's nothing I would change
She doesn′t need improvement
She's much too nice to rearrange


Poetry in motion
Dancing close to me
A flower of devotion
For all the world to see

Oh, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A-whoa

Poetry in motion
See her gentle sway
A wave out on the ocean
Could never move that way

I love every movement
There's nothing I would change
She doesn′t need improvement
She′s much too nice to rearrange

Poetry in motion, all that I adore
No number nine love potion
Could make me love her more

Whoa, a-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A-whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
