Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish I could dive like a swallow at the river's edge
And if I survive soar up to where the world ends
I'd be there for a moment alone above it all
Given everything before I start to fall
[Verse 2]
Wish I could die and know that everything will be okay
But I can't lie, it makes me want to run away
All this blood and beauty I would never see again
The sunlight on your face and the warmth of all my friends
[Chorus]
It's a long, long way down, my love
It's a long, long way
Under the lonely weight of silence
[Verse 3]
And here it comes again
That feeling flowing down my spine
And I can't pretend so I walk out into the sunshine
Across the fields of Waipaparoa the swallow sings its song
They named it something else when they moved its people on
[Chorus]
It's a long, long way down, my love
It's a long, long way
Under the lonely weight of silence
[Verse 4]
And here it comes again
That feeling flowing down my spine
And I can't pretend
And here it comes again
That feeling flowing down my spine
And I can't pretend
So I walk out into the sunshine
