lyrics

all that is left of the daylight
is hangin’ in the air between trees
allthat is left of the teeth of the day
is nothin’ at all

there’s a finger of guilt that’s still yankin’ my chain
on the things that i never got done
there’s nothing at all like doin’ nothin’ at all
on a perfect spring night, nothin’ at all

i’ve got a white swing to swing on and a porch that wraps around i’ve got you i can sing on
so bring on the night as we swing on

as we swing on

all that is left of the winter is the cool of your hand in my own
all that is left of the stress of the day
is just fading away

there’s dog at my feet and a glass in my hand
and a view of the slow setting sun
and of all the places that i’d love to be
there’s none more than this one tonight

i’ve got a white swing to swing on and a porch that wraps around i’ve got you i can sing on
so bring on the night as we swing on

as we swing on

and when all that is left is these moments
we’ll be drinking them down like wine
and when all that is left is the nothin’ at all
we’ll just hold tight, and we’ll swing on

i’ve got a white swing to swing on and you to wrap around
i’ve got so much to sing on
so bring on the night as we swing on

as we swing on
