Lyrics
THE SWALLOWING WRITTEN BY: GARY LEITER & SLOWVEIN
Each time I see your face, I think of everything I did wrong. And want to write another sad song that’s just for me. Cause no one else care’s, cause there’s not much loyalty that grows around you, still I waited in the garden to see what broke through. And if I had a dollar for every “God brought you to me”, I could afford some therapy for my sins. Can I get a hell yeah, hell yeah from you? Cause isn’t that what your supposed to do yeah? And can I get an amen, amen, about love and the swallowing of my pride? I just take things in stride, I never open up like I should. I never thought it did a soul good. But since I’m here and you’re all here too, I thought I’d tell you all a story about a lover I had that showed me anything in life can over night turn bad. If you ever wondered what effect it had on me, just listen to the melody and join in. Can I get a hell yeah, hell yeah from you? Cause isn’t that what your supposed to do yeah? Can I get an amen, amen, about love and the swallowing of my pride. Each time that you walk away, I’d sure love to have you stay with me. Now that you’ve gone away, I thought I’d better tell you goodbye, and go and have another good cry about how love just wont let you go. And how it all came together in the summer time rain you know I can still hear the thunder and you call my name. The next time that you wake up from a dream and scream my name. You know my number hasn’t changed just join in. Can I get a hell yeah, hell yeah from you? Cause isn’t that what your supposed to do yeah? And can I get an amen, amen, about love and the swallowing. You know that you can come back, yeah you know you really want to come back.
