And I Moved Lyrics

Artist: Pete Townshend
Album: Empty Glass

And I moved
As I saw him looking in through my window
His eyes were silent lies
And I moved
And I saw him standing in the doorway
His figure merely filled the space
And I moved
But I moved toward him

And I moved
And his hands felt like ice exciting
As he laid me back just like an empty dress
And I moved
But a minute after he was weeping
His tears his only truth.
And I moved
But I moved toward him

by David P on 5/15/2008 10:11pm Who is he? Who is he moving toward? This is such a great song because we can all answer these questions differently and all be correct. Who do you feel has "tears as his only truth"? And you move toward him. The music fits the lyrics perfectly. Townshend hits something deep here.
by joey on 5/28/2008 12:56pm i think hes moving towards his boyfriend. when u think about it ROugh Boys is incredibly gay, i doubt you can honestly explain it any other way. So is this song..he gets laid by his boyfriend...then townshend or whoever moves away because hes scared about being gay and his boyfriend starts crying. then after seeing that hes "truly" hurting the other dudes feelings he moves again, but this time towards him. whn they first cath each others eye i think the guy looking through the window is trying to act str8 or something but then they cant control themselves

by Ann on 9/10/2008 6:12pm In the book 'Behind Blue Eyes' (a biography of Pete Townshend) it's stated that he was asked by Bette Midler's management to write a song for her because she liked his work. So he wrote this for Bette Midler. But her management considered it too smutty and never gave it to her. Pete then recorded it himself but kept the gender female, causing a lot of speculation about his sexual orientation.
by M. on 11/20/2008 9:37pm This song is so powerful. Joey, do you REALLY think he's gay?
by Leo on 4/9/2009 3:59pm This song was writen for a chic.
by Who fan on 6/9/2009 4:13pm According to the Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock and Roll (2nd Ed.) "Rough Boys" and this song are "about homosexuality". pg. 1076
by Who Are You on 8/6/2009 10:23am I believe he was moving toward the Ghost of Keith Moon,...
