Swan Song Songtext

von Bruce Hornsby

This is no fond farewell
You can be sure I could wish it was no farewell at all
It's been a good long run
Oh, to be sure I don't regret much, not much at all
I'm gonna dance the right away
Gonna do what I want to any old day
And all at once I know the clouds are gonna clear for me

CHORUS

And I will do alright, well in truth, I might
I may be stumblin round, on some cold night
I will miss the times when we were so right
Although it seems so long ago, so long
This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone
This is no sorrowful day
You can be sure I've got no axe to grind at all
It's circumstance or burn out
You can be sure I've been grinding, till I'm grinding to a halt
Sometimes it's the right thing to cut the cord
You've been holding on hard but your hands get sore
Sometimes it's worth it, but sometimes you wonder what for

CHORUS

And I will do alright, well in truth, I might
I may be stumblin round, on some cold night
I will miss the times when we were so right
Although it seems so long ago, so long
This is my swan song, I'm gone, gone
