Lyrics

Swing low,
Could be the last call for two of us.
I said swing high,
Reach out and touch the sky,
But don’t cry yet, it’s not time yet.
See this race is wrong,
Come see, this race is right.
See millions of years pass with no end in sight.
Sleep tight,
You couldn’t count the cost through the night,
‘Cause it’s not right, it never was right.Come a long, long,
Come a long, long way.
Come a long, long,
Come a long, long way.
Come a long, long,
Come a long, long way.
Come a long, long,
Come a long, long way.

Up on May Day and there is a carnival on my street tonight.
I hear them dancing, I hear them dancing.
But on a clear day,
If this thing don’t move here, then this thing just don’t have no heartbeat.
« Get on the street » I say.
Sweet hours to live, I got no time to kill.
I said hold back those arms raised, hold back the bill.
Sleep tight,
You couldn’t count the cost through the night,
‘Cause it’s not right, it never was right.
