I Swear

from Fences by The Altogether

/

lyrics

What did she say
And what did I not say back
This time?

You’re turning your head
Saying friends don’t just talk like that
It’s fine

Well I swear I didn’t swear
I didn’t think I couldn’t handle myself there
‘Cause if push came to shove
The ones I love
Would take the blade to ones who care
Throw me to the sea
I think I’ve had enough excitement for one day
And she’s expecting me

With hips that she moved
And lips that she only used
To lie

She drew me in
And I drew the line and said
Goodbye

But I swear I didn’t swear
I didn’t think I couldn’t handle myself there
‘Cause if push came to shove
The ones I love
Would take the blade to ones who care
Throw me to the sea
I think I’ve had enough excitement for one day
And she’s expecting me

So take me out,
C’mon take me out
Take me out
Just take me out

‘Cause we’re floating high enough
To see the contours of the earth
I don’t know why you think I’d settle
For that dirty rock
If I crash the landing where she’s standing
Do you think we’d hear her say

I swear I didn’t swear
I didn’t think
I couldn’t handle myself there
But if push comes to shove
The ones I love
Will take the blade to ones who care
Go on and throw me to the sea
I think I’ve had enough excitement for one day
And she’s expecting me

So take me out
Just take me out
Take me out

And throw me to the sea
I think I’ve had enough excitement for one day
And she’s expecting me
