- Swing Low Sail High Lyrics / with translationsI have failed you, I have failed you
I have lost my way, lost my nerve
I've failed you
But I love you, how I love you
I have turned my back, left you last
But I love you
O setting sun don't sink before I've found my heart
Heart don't give up now while there's still time
Time don't beat your old retreat
Stay a little while with me
Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye
I have waited, I have waited
For the big reveal, the even keel
I have waited
But there's no one who
Makes it all come true
Just altars gathering dust while we bow to them
O night bring all your shadows and your silence
Silence make a hostage of my mind
Mind bring on your trickery
Black dogs nip on at my heels
Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye
Swing low, sail high
I have failed you, I have failed you
I've closed my heart,
I have failed you
But I love you, how I love you
All my days will rearrange to say I love you
O setting sun don't weep for all the things you lose
Morning comes as sure as it must die
Dying is such mystery
Yet I wonder will it be
When I've looked the whole thing in the eye
Swing low, sail high
Swing low, sail high
I have lost my way, lost my nerve
I've failed you
But I love you, how I love you
I have turned my back, left you last
But I love you
O setting sun don't sink before I've found my heart
Heart don't give up now while there's still time
Time don't beat your old retreat
Stay a little while with me
Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye
I have waited, I have waited
For the big reveal, the even keel
I have waited
But there's no one who
Makes it all come true
Just altars gathering dust while we bow to them
O night bring all your shadows and your silence
Mind bring on your trickery
Black dogs nip on at my heels
Til I've looked the whole thing in the eye
Swing low, sail high
I have failed you, I have failed you
I've closed my heart,
I have failed you
But I love you, how I love you
All my days will rearrange to say I love you
O setting sun don't weep for all the things you lose
Morning comes as sure as it must die
Dying is such mystery
Yet I wonder will it be
When I've looked the whole thing in the eye
Swing low, sail high
Swing low, sail high
