Time To Kill! Lyrics - Singles - Horslips

I see the last black swan 

Fly past the sun 

I wish, I too were gone 

Back home again 

It seems, our fortunes lied 

Despite our gain 

Our tears fall like our pride 

We cry in shame 

Now we've got time to kill 

Kill the shadows on our skin 

Kill the fear that grows within 

Killing time, my friend 

I stare into your eyes 

But can't see far 

You cut me down to size 

You bring the dark 

My body's black and sore 

I need to sleep 

Now hear the heaven's roar 

I can't escape 

Now we've got time to kill 

Kill the shadows on our skin 

Kill the fear that grows within 

Killing time, my friend
