The Fish Are Swimming Slower Every Year

Sleep my darling don't you worry I have to go now, I'm in a hurry And yes there's a message from your father everything was alright no need to bother But I must go because the beauty of the stars cannot be seen from inside cars and they say fish are swimming slower every year And all around us there are people feeling ill but there's no pain here left to kill that's why I know I won't be coming home tonight I saw a picture of us kissing we have a house now, where nothing's missing And yes you were right about the weather snow is falling, sofa of leather But I must go because the beauty of the stars cannot be seen from inside cars and they say fish are swimming slower every year And when I look around the only thing a see is people looking just like me that's why I know I won't be coming home tonight And when I smiled at you and said "I loved you too" I really meant it, it was true But the fish are swimming slower every year And all around us there are people feeling ill but there's no pain here left to kill that's why I know I won't be coming home tonight Sleep my darling don't you worry I have to go now, I'm in a hurry I have to go because the beauty of the stars Cannot be seen from inside cars And they say fish are swimming slower every year And all these people reading travel magazines holding their breath in too tight jeans while the fish are swimming slower every year And I know I have to open up this doors because I'm aware there must be more and the fish are swimming slower every year I have to go because the beauty of the stars Cannot be seen from inside cars And they say fish are swimming slower every year And when I smiled at you and said "I loved you too" I really meant it, it was true But the fish are swimming slower every year
