Swing

Summer has gone
And our sun has cooled
I wake up to my mama’s scream
She shouts all night to sleep
She shouts all day to wake
And I smile as I look into her eyes
Now that’s how my days kicks off
I hold to my spirit somehow

Yesterday I was down and out
I locked up myself and lived alone
I used read but never followed
I used to shout and I was soo hollow
Well there are some people who are lost
They claim they don’t remember me
While I remember the times we had
While I remember the things we shared
Some people ignored me to oblivion
While I still smiled and took care to get their attention
I loved one girl too much
No matter what she does
No matter how she was
I cannot accept her choice
I found her to be churlish
She claimed I’m unattractive
While I found her to be too talkative
Then I decided to shut myself away
Sitting all alone
Disturbed and thoughts came along
I decided to take a walk
I stumbled onto these beautiful eyes
She was with another guy
Before she got onto her bike
She turned to me and smiled
Twenty four hours since we met
My sights on you had been set
Though it was just for a second
I forgot my past and I moved on
Dunno who you are, you made me believe
Dunno where you’re from, you gave back my smile
For all those out there who’re down and out

Sing with me
There will be some sign
This will make our life realign
We go back and forth
That’s how swing works
Remember not to loose your grip
Life is a Swing
Lets get on with it, lets swing high
