The angels glided down, to take you away
You said "So sorry, I can no longer stay"
Isn't that selfish, Isn't that well?
Is it hot or cold? I can no longer tell
(So)
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
And I'm sorry for what I've done
And for what I'm about to do
I betrayed the sun by dancing with the moon
I sit on a thin roof and I count the stars
They all fade away into scars
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
Something that was interesting
That I never quite forgot
You told me that time was the biggest enemy we've got
Well, I wish I listened closer to that fear
Maybe if I did, you might still be here
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
Swing low
Swing low
Swing low and carry me home
You said "So sorry, I can no longer stay"
