She Walks This Earth Lyrics
She's a soulful flower in the garden
She's bobbin in the sunlight, and flirting with her eyes
The way she walks by, I see a wave of color
Moving like an angel, trailing butterflies.
Give me water, Give me inspiration
I want to speak now, but I can't find a word
So unforgiving, is my infatuation
Now that I know, she walks upon the earth
She walks this earth (Yeah Yeah Yeah)
I am restless, burning with desire
And every other heartbeat, I beat just for her
I see her smiling, full as my emotion
This is no illusion, but how can I be heard?
Give me water, Give me inspiration
I want to speak now, but I can't find a word
So unforgiving, is this infatuation
Now that I know, she walks upon the earth
She walks this Earth ( Yeah Yeah Yeah)
She walks this Earth
Give me water, Give me inspiration
I need to hold her, like no one else before
So unforgiving, is my infatuation
Now that I know, she walks upon the earth
She walks this Earth (yeah yeah yeah)
She walks this earth
She walks this earth
I need to hold her, like no one else before
She's bobbin in the sunlight, and flirting with her eyes
The way she walks by, I see a wave of color
Moving like an angel, trailing butterflies.
Give me water, Give me inspiration
I want to speak now, but I can't find a word
So unforgiving, is my infatuation
Now that I know, she walks upon the earth
She walks this earth (Yeah Yeah Yeah)
And every other heartbeat, I beat just for her
I see her smiling, full as my emotion
This is no illusion, but how can I be heard?
Give me water, Give me inspiration
I want to speak now, but I can't find a word
So unforgiving, is this infatuation
Now that I know, she walks upon the earth
She walks this Earth ( Yeah Yeah Yeah)
She walks this Earth
Give me water, Give me inspiration
I need to hold her, like no one else before
So unforgiving, is my infatuation
Now that I know, she walks upon the earth
She walks this Earth (yeah yeah yeah)
She walks this earth
She walks this earth
I need to hold her, like no one else before

Recorded by Sting, this was written by Brenda Russell and Ivan Lins. It is on Love Affair: The Music of Ivan Lins.
It’s intriguing at times to notice what a good songwriter selects when he or she has the opportunity to sing someone else’s composition. It’s also interesting to see in this song, as in Sting’s “Be Still My Beating Heart”, infatuation is acting up again and as in “I Burn For You”, the man is on fire with passion.
In this story, news that this lady is alive has rendered the man tongue-tied with infatuation.
Brenda Russell: Yes, he's [Ivan Lins] one of the most brilliant Brazilian Jazz artist, composers, that I can think of. They did a tribute album to Ivan and Sting recorded this song and I had to write a lyric for Sting, to Ivan's music….only my two favorite artists on the planet. The producer called and said "Ok Brenda, we need a lyric for Sting in two days, can you do it?" I said "Oh yes of course" (both laughing). Now that's when the praying begins! Ok God this has got to be really good. And Sting won a Grammy for that record. I was very thrilled, even without the Grammy, I was so thrilled because I love collaborating with people that I admire and respect musically
