Rita (The Best Thing About Her)

Rita never asked any questions
It seemed she had everything down
Her eyes matched the color of the road
That she took out of this town

I hear she comes around
In the moonlight she dances
And no one else can be found
I'll take my chances

I'll stand by
I'll find something to lose
Besides, the best thing about her
Is the way she walks
The way she moves into view
The best thing about her
Is the way she wanders

Rita never made excuses
She had the world around her finger
Her hands were maps to far off places
Where she would often linger

Rita, do you still think of me
When shadows fade into night?
Did I ripple in your sea?
Did it feel alright?

I'll stand by
I'll find something to lose
Besides, the best thing about her
Is the way she walks
The way she moves into view
The best thing about her

Is how she bends
And she pretends
That it will last beyond the night
Until she breaks
It's your mistake
It felt so wrong that it could be right
I wanna know
Where does she go
She left her pieces in my hands
She starts to haunt
And all that I want
Is to put them together again

But I never found the answers
She'd always leave me guessing

I'll stand by
I'll find something to lose
Besides, the best thing about her
Is the way she walks
And the way she moves
In and out view

The best thing about her
Is the way she wanders
