Lyrics
Swan Song
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.
At the crossing of the border between the night and day
Where the lost and lonely find their twilight sway
And the curse of their existence is the loneliness they feel
Where waking up with a stranger's the only thing from them that's real
So don't sing me your swan song, baby
There's life left in this ol' dog yet
It ain't over 'til it's over until the fat lady sings
It ain't over 'til it's over until the swan spreads
Her wings
And flies away
When you see the ache of lovers as they fumble
In the night
And you feel the wrench inside you as any ex lover might
You can say your time is over for love and all the heat
But a single stranger's kiss can always turn
The bitter into sweet
So don´t sing me your swan song, baby
There's still gas left in this tank
It ain't over 'til it's over until the fat lady sings
It ain't over 'til it's over until the swan spreads
Her wings
And flies away
You're wonderful
You're beautiful
Just give me your hands
