Lyrics Scott Walker

Scott Walker

Face On Breast

Swan

you glide above the thrashing

Release the catches

strain your wings behind your back

Paint his eyes

it'll never lick those eyes

Smear the mouth

all across the thready sky

i tried to show ya

but ya didn't want to go

Ya know how to whistle

put ya lips together and blow

that's what it said

that's what it said

that's what it said

Pledging my love

pledging my love

what if I'm only

if I am only pledging my love

Pledging my love

pledging my love

what if I'm only

if I am only pledging my love
