Al Stewart - Swallow Wind lyrics

Look out, look out, Phoenix cried My time must be at hand I'm feeling cold and I don't know why The ground moves where I stand. All the lies she gave to me In words that twist and bend Now the only place for me Is down in the swallow wind. Far off and long ago She came when I was young A silver moon shining in her eyes And strange the song she sang. All so easy I trusted her I thought she was my friend Now the only place for me Is down in the swallow wind. And I don't really know what to tell you now It's something I just can't control I thought you wanted to take my love Now you want my soul. Last time I saw her She was standing in the sand The ashen moon was in her hair And a cross was in her hand. I'm sailing alone, she cried Though I can't believe I sinned Now the only place for me Is down in the swallow wind.
