Sway Me

lyrics

Change can come like a lightning bolt, like a slamming door.
Suddenly what you had, you don't have anymore -
just an old memory, of the way things used to be.
Sometimes change rolls in like a slow dance.
You think you're lucky cause now there's time for a second chance
to figure out how to move your two left feet.
Baby that sounds like you and me.

I'm halfway here, I'm halfway gone. I can't decide which side I'm on.
But it wouldn't take too much for you to sway me.
Take my hand, touch my cheek, whisper something low and sweet.
Remind me how one look from you could slay me.
Won't you sway me?

I get nervous when I stand still, so to tell the truth,
lately I've been taking steps away from you.
I'm coming up on an open road, won't you show me which way to go.

I'm halfway here, I'm halfway gone. I can't decide which side I'm on.
But it wouldn't take too much for you to sway me.
Take my hand, touch my cheek, whisper something low and sweet.
Remind me how one look from you could slay me.
Won't you sway me

I can tell this song is coming to an end.
Tell me baby can you spin me around again.

I'm halfway here, I'm halfway gone. I can't decide which side I'm on.
But it wouldn't take too much for you to sway me.
Take my hand, touch my cheek, whisper something low and sweet.
Remind me how one look from you could slay me.
Won't you sway me, won't you sway me?
