Girl on a swing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I stand out of sight & watch as the light
From the sun shines through her hair
From yonder she came, I don't know her name
Still I love that girl on a swing
CHORUS:
Girl on a swing, swing high
Girl on a swing, swing low
Take all the hate from the world that we're in
Girl on a swing, swing high
Girl on a swing, swing low
& you can cast all your troubles to the wind
She comes with the light then goes with the night
Oh my heart just yearns, but then comes the dawn & she returns
(chorus)
