Out of My Shell

Out of My Shell
(Difford/Hewerdine)

He walked on to the dance floor and I saw him muscle by
He tried so hard to catch me with a flicker of his eye
A tuft of hair protruding from his open ruffled shirt
He looked like Woody Allen He danced like Captain Kirk

His arms all wrapped around me like the branches in a tree
I knew this man had magic as he danced his way passed me

And I fell for him
Like a coin into a well
I fell for him
I was under his spell
I fell for him
I came out of my shell

He said some very sweet things
About the way I looked
He over did the routine
But inside I felt hooked
We swallowed up the dance floor
And I twisted like a top
I was his strictly princess
He was my stick of rock

And then he boldly took me to the bedroom in his mind
I went there so completely it had been the longest time

And I fell for him
Like a coin into a well
I fell for him
I was under his spell
I fell for him
I came out of my shell

His stutter was seductive
His humour so unique
Down upon the dancefloor we wilted in the heat

And I fell for him
Like a coin into a well
I fell for him
I was under his spell
I fell for him
Coming out of my shell

And I fell for him
Like a coin into a well
I fell for him
I was under his spell
I fell for him
I came out of my shell
I fell, and fell, and fell, and fell……
I came out of my shell
