You stand by me as I stand by you,
On this green swing.
I smile as you smile,
On this green swing.
We don't care about the hair in our face or the sun beating down on us,
On this green swing.
The childlike wonder of laughter,
Of joy,
On this green swing.
Just keep it moving back and forth,
I don't want it to end,
On that green swing.
And the rhythm breaks of back and forth,
Smiling and exhilaration dissipating,
And you know you have to give it up to another awaiting kid,
That feeling of joy is passed along through an imaginary stream,
And you know that kid will feel as much joy as you did,
On this green swing.
