Lyrics:

When I see my baby what do I see
Poetry, poetry in motion

Poetry in motion walking by my side
Her lovely locomotion keeps my eyes open wide

Poetry in motion see her gentle sway
A wave out on the ocean could never move that way

I love every movement
There's nothing I would change
She doesn't need improvement
She's much too nice to rearrange

Poetry in motion dancing close to me
A flower of devotion a-swaying gracefuly
[ sax/woo.oo ]
Poetry in motion see her gentle sway
A wave out on the ocean could never move that way

I love every movement
There's nothing I would change
She doesn't need improvement
She's much too nice to rearrange

Poetry in motion all that I adore
No number nine love potion could make me love her more
