Swingtime Lyrics by Black

Any colour you like (Deluxe Edition)

0

Too many souls are lost
So many dreams lie broken
Will you try to help them
Chase the night away

Turn on the booming silver day
We do it in swingtime
We don't count the skinny seconds
Passing by or wonder why

We do it in swingtime
Make the moment suit the time
We make the rescue fit the crime
And feel each passing year

Absorb the well of tears
They shoot horses, don't they?
So we dance and sway
Into the pulsing, silver grey

We do it in swingtime
We don't count the skinny seconds
Passing by or wonder why
We do it in swingtime

Make the moment suit the time
We make the rescue fit the crime
So many people fail
So many hearts are broken

We come to live with pain
We leave our arms wide open
We do it in swing time
Too many fights are thrown

We count the cost of it growing
Will you try to stop them
Roll away the night
Break out the champagne, hit the lights

We do it in swingtime
We don't count the skinny seconds
Passing by or wonder why
We do it in swingtime

Make the moment suit the time
We make the rescue fit the crime

We do it in swingtime
We don't count the skinny seconds
Passing by or wonder why
We do it in swingtime

Make the moment suit the time
We make the rescue fit the crime

We do it in swingtime
We don't count the skinny seconds
Passing by or wonder why
We do it in swingtime

Make the moment suit the time
We make the rescue fit the crime

We do it in swingtime
We do it in swingtime
We don't count the skinny seconds
Passing by or wonder why
We do it in swingtime
