a-ha The Swing of Things Lyrics

[Pål Waaktaar]

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
I know that I'll need
(For the) rest of my life
I know that I'll need
You know that I'll need

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
.
