Patti Smith:Dancing Barefoot Lyrics

She is benediction
She is addicted to thee
She is the root connection
She is connecting with he

Here I go and I don’t know why
I fell so ceaselessly
Could it be he’s taking over me?

I’m dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroine

She is sublimation
She is the essence of thee
She is concentrating on he
Chosen by she

Here I go and I don’t know why
I spin so ceaselessly
Could it be he’s taking over me?

I’m dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroine

She is re-creation
She, intoxicated by thee
She has the slow sensation that
He is levitating with she

Here I go and I don’t know why
I spin so ceaselessly
‘Til I lose my sense of gravity
I’m dancing barefoot
Heading for a spin
Some strange music draws me in
Makes me come on like some heroine

Oh God, I fell for you

The plot of our life sweats in the dark like a face (Oh God, I fell for you)
The mystery of childbirth, of childhood itself (Oh God, I fell for you)
Grave visitations (Oh God, I fell for you)
What is it that calls to us? (Oh God, I fell for you)

Why must we pray screaming? (Oh God, I fell for you)
Why must not death be redefined? (Oh God, I fell for you)
We shut our eyes, we stretch out our arms (Oh God, I fell for you)
And whirl on a pane of glass (Oh God, I fell for you)

An affixation, a fix on anything (Oh God, I fell for you)
The line of life, the limb of a tree (Oh God, I fell for you)
The hands of he and the promise that she (Oh God, I fell for you)
Is blessed among women (Oh God, I fell for you)

(Oh God, I fell for you)
(Oh God, I fell for you)
(Oh God, I fell for you
