"Sway" lyrics
"Sway"
Midnight in Chinatown
Bars kicking people out
Stumbling into an empty street
All of our friends complain
About how this city's changed
But it's only ever been you and me
Most of us talk too much
Never say enough
The whole world trying to disappear
Above the wasted words
Above the fireworks
You've only ever been clear
I was lost and you knew it
Tied in knots, you'd undo 'em
Tried to drown, felt worthless
But you were waiting for me at the surface
Oh, baby, I love the way you sway
When you're dancing to a bad wedding band
Oh baby, I love the moves you make
When it's raining and you try to hail a cab
I could watch you forever
Hold you and never
Care how long it takes
Learning to play that song that makes you sway
I was lost and you knew it
Tied in knots, you'd undo 'em
Tried to drown, felt worthless
But you were waiting for me at the surface
Oh, baby, I love the way you sway
When you're dancing to a bad wedding band
Oh baby, I love the moves you make
When it's late and you're trying to hail a cab
I could watch you forever
Hold you and never
Care how long it takes
Learning to play that song that makes you sway
Learning to play those songs that makes you sway

I feel like taking chances, I feel a lot like seventeen
I feel like windows rolled down, new city, streets and cabs
I feel like anything...
O.A.R. (Of A Revolution) - "Peace" I don’t wanna fight no more
Only wanna get to shore
Baby, don’t slam the door tonight
We ran another off the tracks
That’s time we can’t get back
But, we can save tomorrow if we try
Oh, 'til we make...
Rob Thomas - "Pieces" Run away, run away if you can't speak
Turn a page on a world that you don't need
Wide awake and you're scared that you won't come down now
Didn't I tell you you were gonna break down
Didn't I warn...
Trevor Hall - "The Lime Tree" Spark a match and watch the candle burn
The wick runs out and then love takes its turn
On fallen angels and broken sounds
We will last past the final round
It took a while for you to find me
But I...
Brett Dennen - "See The World" Where you goin' my brown-eyed son?
You used to crawl but now you run
You started off on a road half-dark
And the river curled into a question mark
Will you sleep on diamond beaches, dear?
And drink...
