Marc Almond - Swan Song Lyrics

Marc Almond Lyrics

"Swan Song"

I'm passing the torch
Sacrificing the flame
Tongue tied and star-struck
But I'm dancing again
All you fly by night lovers
And you fair weather friends
This is my swan song
And here's where it ends

My times passed on
I no longer belong
So I'm saying goodbye
And I'll be gone
With my swan song

All you misguided souls
And lovers long lost
Pretending your something
And someone you're not
All my tears are done falling
My heart-sink to rise
This is my swan song
My smiling goodbyes

My times passed on
I no longer belong
So I'm saying goodbye
And I'll be gone
With my swan song

If I committed a crime
I'm so sorry I say
Just hand me the fine
And I'm willing to pay
A choral refrain
Satisfies my romance
And the song once again
Lifts my spirit to dance

All the roads
That I've walked
Through the wind and the rain
For all that I've been
I hope has not been in vain

My times passed on
I no longer belong
So I'm saying goodbye
And I'll be gone
With my swan song

I've sung all the songs
Played out all the scenes
They no longer belong
Belong to me
