Joan Shelley - The Sway Lyrics

Joan Shelley Lyrics

"The Sway"

Here on this night
Here on this floor
Everything I will call mine
I want to rot with yours
This is the slow dance
This is the sway
Let there be arms entwined
And hands let play

Can I hold
Can I hold
Hold it all?

While I've got mine
I want all of yours
While I've got time
I want more
Cause all of the light
That poured in
To those big round eyes
To that supple skin

Can I hold
Can I hold
Hold it all?

The paint will crack
The fence will break
But you got the key to my door
Just smiling
Cause Honey
We were only made
For one sweet romance
And then we fade

Can I hold
Can I hold
Hold it all?
