They were sitting, they were sitting in the strawberry swing And every moment was so precious They were sitting, they were talking in the strawberry swing And everybody was for fighting Wouldn't wanna waste a thing
Cold, cold water bring me 'round Now my feet won't touch the ground Cold, cold water What you say? It's such, it's such a perfect day It's such a perfect day
I remember we were walking up to strawberry swing I can't wait 'til the morning Wouldn't wanna change a thing
People moving all the time Inside a perfect straight line Don't you wanna curve away It's such it's such a perfect day It's such a perfect day
Ahhhh....
Now the sky could be blue I don't mind Without you its a waste of time ...could be blue I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time The sky could be blue, could be gray without you I just slide away The sky could be blue, I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time End on A5 for a few bars ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
