Swing, Swing Lyrics
Days swiftly come and go
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions, they stir
The sun is gone
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
Wish cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old
They bend, they fold
And so do I to a new love
Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
Bury me
You thought your problems were gone?
Carry me
Away, away, away
Swing, swing, swing
(Swing, swing, swing)
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again? (x3)
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions, they stir
The sun is gone
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old
They bend, they fold
And so do I to a new love
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I'll find someone new
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?
You thought your problems were gone?
Carry me
Away, away, away
(Swing, swing, swing)
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again? (x3)

haha....for about six months now i've thought that they were saying "tabletop" instead of "tangles of." my eyes are opened, and i feel like a huge nerd.
this song i can totally relate to! i get attached to some guy, they break my heart and somehow i can't get over them. so i just want some guy to sweep me off my feet so i can ditch the "former love". i just wanna sing this to the guy that breaks my heart because it says exactly what i would want to say to him. "did you think that i would cry on the phone? do you know what it feels like being alone? i'll find someone new" its sayin, "hey! did u ever consider how i would feel? how would u like to be alone...but guess what, i'll find someone new, because you're an ass" i could just go on forever about how great the lyrics are to this song! the wording is perfect! aar kick ass! and are awesome in concert! :) they need to come back to cali soon!
this is such a radd song!! i love it so much! this is one kick ass band!

I did too!! I have always thought it was tables of my heart until recently.. And instead of former love, I thought it was Form of love.. Blah@Me LoL..
Anyways, I think we all know the meaning of this song.. Its about trying to move on from a relationship and pain that was caused by cheating, etc.. This song manages to always touch me personally.. So moving! Love it!
