You Swan, Go On

As good as I could possibly imagine my life getting, it did
After I met you
The way you reached inside my chest and pulled out things
And sent them off in breaths blew

And as good as it got with all the layers peeling off, and though I writhed
I could not upset you
With your hand down my throat, you held on to my heart and pumped blood through

And then it's time to go, you said it's time to go out
"You little gray goose"
"Get out from under my wing" you said
You swan, go on, go out, you're turned loose

Oh so it's over
Oh so we died
Oh so your hand on my heart pumping blood went limp
And oh, I fly
Oh, swan inside
