Swing Life Away

Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost Pre-Chorus I'll show you mine if you show me yours first Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words Chorus We live on front porches and swing life away We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand Verse 2 I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow Verse 3 I've got some friends, some that I hardly know But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go Chorus We live on front porches and swing life away We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand Pre-Chorus I'll show you mine if you show me yours first Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words Chorus We live on front porches and swing life away We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor I'll slave till the end I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand Outro Swing life away Swing life away Swing life away Swing life away
