Scott Walker - Face On Breast Lyrics

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
pppledging
my love

what if I'm
only

if I am
only
pledging
my love
