Song | You Swan Go On |
Artist | Mount Eerie |
Album | Lost Wisdom |
As good as I could possibly imagine my life getting, it did | |
After I met you | |
The way you reached inside my chest and pulled out things and sent them off in breaths blew | |
And as good as it got with all the layers peeling off, and though I writhed | |
I could not upset you | |
With your hand down my throat you held on to my heart and pumped blood through | |
And then “it’s time to go” you said, “it’s time to go out | |
You little gray goose | |
Get out from under my wing” you said “go on you swan you turn loose” | |
Oh so it’s over | |
Oh so we died | |
Oh so your hand on my heart pumping blood went limp and oh, I fly | |
Oh swan inside. |
As good as I could possibly imagine my life getting, it did | |
After I met you | |
The way you reached inside my chest and pulled out things and sent them off in breaths blew | |
And as good as it got with all the layers peeling off, and though I writhed | |
I could not upset you | |
With your hand down my throat you held on to my heart and pumped blood through | |
And then " it' s time to go" you said, " it' s time to go out | |
You little gray goose | |
Get out from under my wing" you said " go on you swan you turn loose" | |
Oh so it' s over | |
Oh so we died | |
Oh so your hand on my heart pumping blood went limp and oh, I fly | |
Oh swan inside. |
