- 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.
