Song Lyrics

It's the swing
It's the swing like a pendulum
It marks the moments as the years go by in an innocent phase
The swing into never-never land
There was a darkness like an old friend
That scratched and crawled up the wall
Into my life
Into my destiny
Into my desire

It's the swing
It's the swing like a pendulum
So look behind you when the race has run
And the winner is named
The swing into never-never land
There was a darkness like an old friend
That scratched and crawled up the wall
Into my life

Well it's the swing
The swing like a pendulum
Between the pieces and between the lines
Leaving nothing to hide
There was a darkness like an old friend
That scratched and crawled up the wall
Into my life
Into my destiny
Into my desire

It's the swing
It's the swing like a pendulum
It's the swing
It's the swing like a pendulum
It's the swing

Andrew Charles Farriss, Michael Hutchence
