Did you ever hear a song whose first verse just grabbed you with its imagery?

This one just has the perfect melody to enhance the lyrics, too.
i heard it again recently, after something like 20 years.

From Bruce Hornsby's "Til The Dreaming's Done"

Well I saw her one day
At the corner cafe
Everybody there knew she's a wonder
I sat there all night
Too shy to say
Honey you could keep me from going under

Oh my my when she walks on by
It's hard not to get lost in the view
How can you know if the feeling's a lie
When love comes out of the blue?

North, south, east, west
Up, down, all around and all the rest
I'll go anywhere that she wants me to go
Of all the girls I've loved she's the best
She's the one
Till the dreaming's done
