Swallow Song Songtext
von Jon Toogood

I wish I could dive like a swallow at the river′s edge
And if I survive sore up to where the world ends
I'd be there for a moment alone above it all
Given everything before I start to fall
Wish I could die and know that everything will be ok
But I can′t lie it makes me want to run away
All this blood and beauty I would never see again
The sunlight on your face and the warmth of all my friends
It's a long long way down my love
It's a long long way
Under the lonely weight of silence
And here it comes again
That feeling flowing down my spine


And I can′t pretend so I walk out into the sunshine
Across the fields of Waipaparoa the swallow sings it′s song
They named it something else when they moved it's people on
It′s a long long way down my love
It's a long long way
Under the lonely weight of silence
And here it comes again
That feeling flowing down my spine
And I can′t pretend
And here it comes again
That feeling flowing down my spine
And I can't pretend
So I walk out into the sunshine
