Here are the swallows
|
They live in your guitar
|
And underneath the lightbulbs
|
They're swimming in the air
|
|
Whisper in my ear
|
Whisper in my ear
|
Whisper in my ear
|
|
Here is a fire
|
Impossible to see
|
Fire in the space between who I am
|
And who I want to be
|
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear, ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
|
Let's go to the river
|
I will throw all of the others in
|
Let's go to the river, darling
|
I will throw all my other lovers in
|
|
And when it is over
|
When all is said in song
|
All of the swallows, they go back
|
To the, to the place where they came
|
They're singing in my ear
|
Singing in my ear
|
Singing in my ear
|
Singing in my ear, ear
|
Singing in my ear
|
Singing in my ear
|
Singing in my ear
|
|
Everybody knows your name
|
But I will sing it just the same
|
Everybody knows your name
|
But I will sing it just the same
|
|
Let's go to the factory
|
I will show you where to bury me
|
Let's go to the factory, darling
|
I'll show you where all my poems should be
|
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear, ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear, ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
Sing it in my ear
|
