The music I always heard as a kid was
A little closer to Heaven
than what I’m singing now
And the moment I opened the door
To the house where I was born
I heard a chorus singing “Swing Low”
And the walls would shake at the sound
Yeah, the walls would shake
The life I always wanted around me
Wasn’t the one that I got but I think I get it now
I just needed a hand to hold me up
And a woman who understands my love
And a chorus to fill my lungs, singing oh
I need the walls to shake all around
I need the walls to shake right now
So swing low, swing low, swing low and take me home
Swing low, swing low, swing low and take me home
I need the walls to shake all around
I need the walls to shake right now
So swing low, swing low, swing low and take me home
Swing low, swing low, swing low and take me home
I need the walls to shake all around
I need the walls to shake right now
Swing low, swing low, swing low
Swing low, swing low, swing low
I need the walls to shake right now
