Swept Away by Diana Ross Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1984

[Intro]
I was lying there
Lying on the beach
I dreamed you were there
Feel the heat
The sun and the waves
When you touch my hand
We were on a desert island
And I had a dream
I was swept away

[Verse 1]
You and I are on an island
Where I thought the storm would never end
I saw your light on the horizon
And I knew that I was blown away again

[Chorus]
No it doesn't matter
Yeah, it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing lasts forever
'Cause nothing last forever
No it doesn't matter
No it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing lasts forever
Nothing last forever
[Refrain]
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you

[Verse 2]
The rise and fall is endless
The risk you run of being lost in blue
You caught my drift while I was restless
When the current flows
I'm gonna flow with you

[Chorus]
No it doesn't matter
Yeah, it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing last forever
Nothing last forever
No it doesn't matter
No it doesn't matter
'Cause nothing last forever
Nothing last forever

[Refrain]
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
I was swept away
I was swept away
I was swept away with you
[Bridge]
For a day
Or maybe for a lifetime
Break away
Is he throwing me a lifeline
If I say
That this will be the last time
Swept away
Will it end with you?

[Refrain]
I was swept away
Swept away
Swept away

[Outro]
No it won't, no it won't
No it doesn't matter
Nothing last forever
