I wander lonely as a cloud I keep my head above the crowd Ain't nobody else as big as me But I must remember friends What has to start just has to end Everybody's got a destiny And I know when the swallows flies Yes, I know, and the earth just dies Then I'll be told what I am The swallow and me I'll look after number one I'll forget the beggar's son Everybody's got to stay alive I'll keep walking amongst the clouds I'll keep my head above the crowd I'll watch them live, I'll watch them die And I know when the swallows flies Yes, I know, and the earth just dies Then I'll be told what I am The swallow and me Yes, I know when the swallows flies Yes, I know, and the earth just dies Yes, I know when the swallow flies Yes, I know, and the earth just dies
