The Swing

It's the swing

It's the swing like a pendulum

It marks the moments as the years go by in an innocent phase

The swing into never-never land

There was a darkness like an old friend

That scratched and crawled up the wall

Into my life

Into my destiny

Into my desireIt's the swing

It's the swing like a pendulum

So look behind you when the race has run

And the winner is named

The swing into never-never land

There was a darkness like an old friend

That scratched and crawled up the wall

Into my lifeWell it's the swing

The swing like a pendulum

Between the pieces and between the lines

Leaving nothing to hide

There was a darkness like an old friend

That scratched and crawled up the wall

Into my life

Into my destiny

Into my desireIt's the swing

It's the swing like a pendulum

It's the swing

It's the swing like a pendulum

It's the swing
