Too Long A Song

Words And Music 

Pamme Swan

 

This song you sing is too long a song

Too long a song

Too long a song

This song you sing is too long a song

And it's time to think about home

 

But the Bouncing castles are blowing away

With our children inside 

On their happy birthdays 

The bouncing castles are blowing away

And the mothers all stand alone

 

This song you sing is too long a song

Too long a song

Too long a song

This song you sing is too long a song

And it's time to think about home

 

But the heavenly one's been thrown to the fire

Thrown to the fire

Thrown to the fire

The heavenly one's been thrown to the fire

Not a pleasant way to go 

 

This song you sing is too long a song

Too long a song

Too long a song

This song you sing is too long a song

And it's time to think about home

 

 To the river we rode, the girl with a star

Girl with a star

Girl with a star

To the river we rode, the girl with a star

Girl with a golden star on a string

 

This song you sing is too long a song

Too long a song

Too long a song

This song you sing is too long a song

And it's time to think about home

 

It shone like sun though they called her a liar

Called her a liar

Called her a liar

It shone like the sun though they called her a liar

And they would not see the sun

 

This song you sing is too long a song

Too long a song

Too long a song

This song you sing is too long a song

And it's time to think about home

 

There's no home for I'm the river that flows

The river that flows

The river that flows

There's no home for I'm the river that flows

Into twilight

Into twilight 

Into twilight
