Swans (Life After Death)
Lyricist:Alden Penner, Nicholas Shanah Thorburn
Swans, swans Swans sing songs all night long Who knew how warm The islands were
While the frogs look on It's what the birds prefer And it's still warm after the sun has gone
I woke up thirsty the day I died And the tide was swirling My mouth is so dry And all I see is sea, two shining seas
Swans, swans Swans sing songs all night long Who knew how warm The islands would be
And who knew just how much The sky'd cover me It makes you forget What it means to be free
I climbed into the blowhole In the ribs I found you With a wick we lit a flame Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Now look at the smoke that it blew
The mouth is so wide Yet all I see is sea And azure sky A little wave and ebb tide
Rivers leak, salt seeps in Heals wounds, winds pry apart Rivers leak, salt seeps in Heals wounds, winds pry apart
Rivers leak, salt seeps in Heals wounds, winds pry apart
Swans, swans, swans sung songs Till the morning dawned on us And the sun smudged peach moon Still hung loose
Bones, bones, bones grown homes With the sparrows in the trees We leave them for They love the marrow
I'm thankful for my life I'm thankful for my life
