The Swing of Things Lyrics by A-Ha

The Swing of Things Lyrics

    You say the world's an eventful place
    You give me news
    I don't want to know
    You say that I should care
    That I should speak my mind

    Oh, but how can I speak of the world
    Rushing by
    With a lump in my throat
    And tears in my eyes
    Oh, have we come to the point of no turning back
    Or is it still time to get into
    The swing of things

    Let us walk through this windless city
    I'll go on till the winter gets me
    Oh, "sleep..." you wrote "sleep, my dear"
    In a letter somewhere

    Oh, but how can I sleep with your
    voice in my head
    With an ocean between us
    And room in my bed
    Oh, have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip
    Or is it still time to get into
    The swing of things

    Oh, when she glows in the dark
    And I'm weak by the sight
    Of this breathtaking beauty
    In which I can hide
    Oh, there's a worldful out there
    Of people I fear
    But given time I'll get into
    The swing of things

    Yes, when she glows in the dark and
    I'm struck by the sight
    I know that I'll need this for the rest of my life

    What have I done
    What lies I have told
    I've played games with the ones that
    rescued my soul
    Oh, have I come to the point where I'm losing the grip
    Or is it still time to get into
    The swing of things
