I'm the lead singer/bass player for an all-female rock cover band called, "Rock Candy" in Cincinnati, OH (friend us on Facebook!) but I also like to sing other styles of music.
Lyrics
The Swing
Summertime, boy meets girl
They get lost in their little world
They found a meeting place beneath the trees
An old wood swing, so he asked her "Please...
Meet me at the swing tonight my darlin'
There's something I've got on my mind
From the first time that I held you
I knew I'd held you a thousand times
I love you, and the happiness you bring
Every time I look at you, I feel my heart sing
Meet me at the swing."
Time went by, their love grew
Into something strong and true
He asked if she would meet him at that place
Where down on one knee, he could see her face
"Meet me at the swing tonight my darlin'
There's something I've got on my mind
From the first time that I held you
I knew I'd held you a thousand times
I love you, you're my only everything
Baby it's with all my heart, I'll give to you this ring
Meet me at the swing."
They shared their love as man and wife
Children came into their lives
He said, "I hope I'm everything they need
What if I can't be enough?"
She said, "Then in God we'll trust
We'll take life on together day by day."
Now and then, they'd sneak off to that special place.
Time flew by, years went fast
Cancer took his life at last
She went down to the swing to sit and pray
The wind blew, and she heard him clear as day
"Meet me at the swing tonight my darlin'
There's something I've got on my mind
From the first time that I held you
I knew I'd hold you for all time
I love you, and I just want you to know
Even though I'm gone, my love will always show
So when the angels come and take you in their wings
Meet me at the swing."
Meet me at the swing tonight my darlin'
Meet me at the swing tonight my darlin'.
