She swings

[[I imagine this song as power pop/pop rock. Fast overall, up beat, but slows down at some places.]]

[v1]
she smiles
feeling his hands on the small of her waist
she laughs
as she flies back and forth at a giddy pace

her heart
is soaring as high as the tip of her nose
her feet
are dancing on air as she wiggles her toes

[prechorus 1]
she says
'i think the sun is getting brighter
the clouds have gone, i wanna go higher
promise me that this is forever n-o-o-ow'

[chorus]
and she swings and she swings
and she swings and she swings

breeze always tousling her long brown hair

and she swings and she swings
and she swings and she swings

an airborne heart now without a care

and she swings and she swings
and she swings and she swings

and she swings

[v2]
she smiles
feeling his hands on the side of her hip
she gasps
as scoops her on up and goes for a dip

her mind
is whirling along to the beat of the song
her arms
encircle his neck as he rocks her along

[prechorus 2]
she says
'i think the music's getting stronger
the blues are gone, Can we go a little longer?
Promise me that this is forever n-o-o-ow'

[Chorus]

[bridge]
and she swings

through the park
on her brightest day

through a pulsing club
just to hear him say

[bridge 2]
that the pain of her past is ending
she was down but he'll swing her back up
he's thinks her broken heart's worth mending
and he swears he'll never give up
he'll never give up

[Short music break]

[bridge 3]
and she swings

through their living room
when he thought she'd be out
to the bedroom door
when she heard a shout
and she sees him swinging with another girl
she just stops and stares at her crumbing world

and she swings and she swings
and she swings and she swings
(x3)

and she swings

[v3]
she cries
leaving a note that she knows he'll find
she climbs
up on a chair to leave it all behind

her hands
shake as they fumble with the dangling string
her breath
mixes with air as she has one last swing

[PAUSE]

[CHORUS]
