The Walk
Ill-Eagles Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In the club, drinking my cares away
At the bar, and then I saw a flash across the room
Your sequin dress, moving into the light
I was daydreaming you hypnotized me
Are you gonna walk my way
Smiling at me, shakin’ ya body
Are you gonna make my day
The way you move drivin’ me crazy
Are ya gonna groove all night
You’re working that beat, it makes me feel all right
Darling please, walk my way
Electric eyes, staring across the room
They seem to say that you want to dance with me
Now you’re here, my troubles melt away
Put down my glass as I watch you grooving
Through the haze, I walk across the floor
Hungry eyes as you move in closer
I’m motionless, you lay your hands on me
Face to face, we need no words now
Are you gonna walk my way
Smiling at me, shakin’ ya body
Are you gonna make my day
The way you move drivin’ me crazy
Are ya gonna groove all night
See ya working that beat, it makes me feel all right
Baby please, walk my way
The mood it changed, As I looked into those eyes
Transfixed I hesitate; you kissed me in the light
Drift away in the moment, you give me all I need
And my heart it is racing, as you dance with me
Are you gonna walk my way
Smiling at me, shakin’ ya body
Are you gonna make my day
The way you move drivin’ me crazy
Are we gonna groove all night
Working this beat, it makes me feel all right
Darling please, walk my way
You really knock me out, when you walk my way
Shake your body down, you really make my day




Dancing all night long, can I take you home tonight
Darling please, walk my way
