Swan Dive

Swan dives, swan dives, leaving you
Slowly, slowly, here comes the night
Starlight, starlight, far from home
Slowly, slowly, here comes the night.

Last night, last night, she took my arm
She said softly,
“when will you accept...
there's more to life than books you know
there's more to life than books you know.”

Darkness, darkness takes me away
She flies she flies far from the sky
Lights will fade and when you sleep
Songs will fade and I will be gone.

I was born ready for--ready for the night
I was born waiting for--waiting for the night
I was born ready for--ready for the light
I was born waiting for--waiting for the light.

I was born ready for--ready for the night
I was born waiting for--waiting for the night
I was born ready for--ready for the light
I was born waiting for--waiting for the light to come.

I was born ready for the night
I was born waiting for the night
I was born ready for the light
I was born waiting for the light to come.

Swan dives, swan dives, leaving you
Slowly, slowly, here comes the night
Starlight, starlight, far from home
Slowly, slowly, here comes the night
Darkness, darkness takes me away
She flies she flies far from the sky
Lights will fade and when you sleep
Songs will fade and I will be gone.
