Speak to me in a language I can hear   Humour me before I have to go   Deep in thought I forgive everyone   As the cluttered streets greet me once again   I know I can't be late, supper's waiting on the table   Tomorrow's just an excuse away   So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own   The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet   At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk   Steeple guide me to my heart and home   The sun is out and up and down again   I know I'll make it, love can last forever   Graceful swans of never topple to the earth   And you can make it last, forever you   You can make it last, forever you   And for a moment I lose myself   Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world   I've journeyed here and there and back again   But in the same old haunts I still find my friends   Mysteries not ready to reveal   Sympathies I'm ready to return   I'll make the effort, love can last forever   Graceful swans of never topple to the earth   Tomorrow's just an excuse   And you can make it last, forever you   You can make it last, forever you
