Furniture - Swing Tender

Copied!

Here in these arms
That held on to some sort of truth for a while
You can sleep, if you like
And while you sleep I will sing low to you in a lullaby style
So your dreams may be sweet
If you like

Dream of a universe opening up before you
Swing out to the moon on the wings
On the swings of a love that's new

Here in these arms
That haven't held on to so much for a while
You can stay, if you like
And when you wake, well it's just the beginning for us
Yet it could be everything, anything
That you like...

So drеam of a universe opening up bеfore you
Swing out to the moon on the wings
On the swings of a love that's new
Dream of a universe opening up before you
See how it's beckoning
Taunting you tenderly, wanting you

Dream of a universe opening up before you
Swing out to the moon on the wings
On the swings of a love that's new
Oh, dream of a universe opening up before you
Safe till it touches you
Clutches you, tenderly taking you

It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness
It's not like loneliness

edit bio

Furniture is a British indie pop band that was formed in 1979 in London. The band was originally a quartet consisting of Jim Irvin (vocals, guitar), Tim Whelan (keyboards), Hamilton Lee (drums), and Maya Gilder (bass). They quickly gained a following in the London music scene with their melodic pop songs and catchy hooks.

Furniture released their debut single, "Why Are We In Love?" in 1981 and followed it up with their first album, "The Wrong People" in 1983. The album received critical acclaim and established the band as one of the leading acts in the UK indie music scene.

Over the years, Furniture went through several lineup changes and released a string of albums and singles that showcased their eclectic sound and songwriting skills. Their music was characterized by lush arrangements, poetic lyrics, and a blend of alternative rock, new wave, and post-punk influences.

Despite not achieving mainstream success, Furniture continued to be a cult favorite among music fans and critics. They disbanded in the late 1980s but reunited briefly in the early 2000s for a series of live shows and festival appearances.

Today, Furniture is remembered as one of the pioneering indie bands of the 1980s, with their music still cherished by fans of alternative pop and post-punk. Their influence can be heard in the music of contemporary indie bands, and their legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians.
