Dane Hinkle: sample music
Swanda (acoustic version)
(Dane Hinkle)
Swanda
She had the beauty of an angel
And a glow to match the summer noon-day sun
I could see no one around her
Though the room was full
She seemed to be alone
And with a simple subtle glance from her
I somehow knew that she would be the one
And we danced on the mountain
Underneath a stormy western sky
And the moon made shadows as the clouds rolled by
And the lightening laughed
And the thunder cried
For almost a year we laughed and loved and cried
And shared our secrets locked deep inside
But with the ringing of the telephone
I could see the anger in her eyes
And with a subtle voice from the other room
She hung up the phone
And said goodbye
It was about a year before I saw her again
She’d changed a little bit
She had lost a few pounds
And she had dyed her hair blond, bleach blond
And she was Smokin’
And she had changed her name to Swanda
She’s got a nose ring and a tattoo on her ankle
And she’ll tell you that she loves you
But the man she loved before drove her insane
So no matter what you do or say
For everything he’s ever done
You’ll get the blame
It’s the way you leave the lid up
And the light on in the hall
And the phone bill’s two weeks late and its his fault
Well she changed her name to Swanda
She’s got a nose ring and a tattoo on her ankle
But that cocaine from her past whets her memory like a heavy morning dew
And the color of your eyes tell her the man she loved before
is just like you
Yea, the color of your eyes tell her the man she loved before was just like you
Well she changed her name to Swanda
She’s got a nose ring and a tattoo on her ankle
