lyrics

SWINGING
I follow you down to where the street unfolds
To where the darkness calls and the wild wind roars
On the long green grass we lay down our swords
Call a truce on open land with a handshake
We call a truce on open land with a handshake

And then down we go again
Down we go again
Down we go again
Swinging for the last time

You follow me up to where the city meets the sun
Windows on fire till the day comes undone
Where the prophets never sleep
And the weary lose their feet
In the dead end dying day to day
In the dead end dying day to day

And then down they go again
Down we they again
Down we they again
Swinging for the last time

We lay on our backs in a wallpapered room
A dresser on each side of a bed made for two
Minutes turn to days and we drift off to the moon
Just long enough to hear that lonesome call
Just long enough to hear that lonesome call

And then down we go again
Down we go again
Down we go again
Swinging for the last time

I follow you down to where the street unfolds
Where the darkness calls and the wild wind it roars
And In the long green grass we lay down our swords
Call a truce on open land with a handshake
We call a truce on open land with a handshake
