Story Behind The Song
Just set about to write a dancable, catchy tune with a light love, or in this case, adoration overtone. Used Audrey Hepburn as the model for the female subject.
Song Description
Nice upbeat dance tune with a swee melody, good hook and light, yet strong, lyrics that tell a short story. This song, I believe, could easily be converted into a contemporary country format with just a few subtle changes in the instruments, leads, tonality of the vocals, etc.

Lyrics
All the right things
Words and music by
Levi Lewis
Oooh, can you feel the wind blow
Ah, can you see my heart grow
When she walks by
Oooh, I think it?d be a safe bet
This time I?ll get my feet wet
Hell, at least it?s worth a try
She?s got me doing now?
Chorus
All the right things, at the very best times
Shankin in a rhythm, speaking out in rhymes
A cool foot taller with a tude in my step
On my way to immortality?well I?m not there yet
No I?m not there yet
Oooh, it?s all a sudden clear to me
She is the true epitome
Of pure grace and style
Oooh, a beauty that is classical
With a boy who?s barely passable
Yeah, it?s gonna be a trial
But I?m still doing now?
Chorus
All the right things, at the very best times
Shankin in a rhythm, speaking out in rhymes
A cool foot taller with a tude in my step
On my way to immortality?well I?m not there yet
No I?m not there yet
Bridge
Ooh, are we cruising now ? down the boulevard, to adventure
No don?t turn there, it?s the opposite direction?from anywhere
Oh man it?s just not fair, no, no.
Oooh, can you feel the wind blow
As it rages through my torn soul
As she blows by
Oooh, the effort was commendable
But the outcome less than credible
Was it really worth a try
Cause now I?m stuck with doing?
Chorus
All the right things, at the very best times
Shankin in a rhythm, speaking out in rhymes
A cool foot taller with a tude in my step
On my way to immortality?well I?m not there yet
No I?m not there yet
No I?m not there yet
No I?m not there yet
