Brilliant Conversationalist

(album: Brilliant Conversationalist - 1987)

Cocktail talk, idle chatter
Lipstick lips that flirt and flatter
Not a word I hadn't heard before
'Til I saw her coming through the door
She lets her walking do her talking
She's a brilliant conversationalist

The more she moved the more I was amazed
How gracefully she could turn a phrase
Every thought so well expressed
Every line so picturesque
She lets her walking do her talking
She's a brilliant conversationalist

She had so many nice things to say
And I had never seen it put quite that way
Her nylons were whispering an invitation
Her high heels provided all the punctuation

I spent the whole night watching her
She had me hanging on her every word
She let me know what she had in mind
I walked her home one step behind
She lets her walking do her talking
She's a brilliant conversationalist

She lets her walking do her talking
She's a brilliant conversationalist
Talk to me baby
I know the things I want to hear
Now keep talking baby
You're coming through loud and clear
You know I think I understand what you mean now
