Raymond & Maria The Fish Are Swimming Slower Every Year Lyrics

Sleep my darling don't you worry
I have to go now, I'm in a hurry
And yes there's a message from your father
Everything was alright no need to bother

But I must go because the beauty of the stars
Cannot be seen from inside cars
And they say fish are swimming slower every year
And all around us there are people feeling ill
But there's no pain here left to kill
That's why I know I won't be coming home tonight

I saw a picture of us kissing
We have a house now, where nothing's missing
And yes you were right about the weather
Snow is falling, sofa of leather

But I must go because the beauty of the stars
Cannot be seen from inside cars
And they say fish are swimming slower every year
And when I look around the only thing a see
Is people looking just like me
That's why I know I won't be coming home tonight

And when I smiled at you and said "I loved you too"
I really meant it, it was true But the fish are swimming slower every year
And all around us there are people feeling ill
But there's no pain here left to kill
That's why I know I won't be coming home tonight

Sleep my darling don't you worry
I have to go now, I'm in a hurry

I have to go because the beauty of the stars
Cannot be seen from inside cars
And they say fish are swimming slower every year
And all these people reading travel magazines
Holding their breath in too tight jeans
While the fish are swimming slower every year

And I know I have to open up this doors
Because I'm aware there must be more
And the fish are swimming slower every year
I have to go because the beauty of the stars
Cannot be seen from inside cars
And they say fish are swimming slower every year

And when I smiled at you and said "I loved you too"
I really meant it, it was true
But the fish are swimming slower every year
