Lyrics

Swept

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.

Be careful what you say,

Loose talk could sink this ship

Well the way that I am as weak as a lamb,

See it on my shaky lip

There's more to these actions,

That you could ever know

With the moon and the tide I'm drawn to your side

And moving with the flow

When it's time to choose and it's sink or swim,

I know I'll drown this time

When the cold wind blows and I'm falling in,

Throw the line

Now I'm swept,

And I'm lost within my mind

On a love that makes me blind

And this feeling I just can't forget,

Now I'm swept

On a tide that's in my soul

And this feeling that I have is losing me control

And I hope it doesn't end just yet,

Now I'm swept

Mind over matter,

No matter where this mind will be

There's more to be said, oh, for games in the head

Than anything you'll ever see

There's safety in dreaming,

So wrap me in things that I know

With my head in the sand,

I'm at your command

And moving with the flow

When it's time to choose and it's sink or swim,

I know I'll drown this time

When the cold wind blows and I'm falling in,

Throw the line

Now I'm swept,

And I'm lost within my mind

On a love that makes me blind

And this feeling I just can't forget,

Now I'm swept

On a tide that's in my soul

And this feeling that I have is losing me control

And I hope it doesn't end just yet,

Now I'm swept
