"A Swallow In The Sun" lyrics
"A Swallow In The Sun"
My love, let me bring
Everything your heart desires
Everything you'll ever need
When you rise, hen you retire
Sweet thing, oh my word
Such a very pretty sight
As a swallow in the sun
As a sparrow in the night
My love, can you not feel it
I don't know how to let you go on
A swallow in the sun
A sparrow in the night
All alone
Dear heart, if I may
You are beauty of the earth
You are broken like a glass
You don't know what you are worth
Sweet thing, oh my word
Such a very pretty sight
As a swallow in the sun
As a sparrow in the night

Elbow - "One Day Like This" Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off a heavy one
Yeah, heavy like a loaded gun
What made me behave that way?
