There is child in a shell called my mind
Alone and left behind
In world so unkind
Fear straps him with tethers
Hope chained with heavy anchors
A bird without feathers
Mr. Low, Mr. Low
Will you
Let me go
(I want to get off this swing)
Mr. Low, Mr. Low
Will you
Let me go.
(I want to get off this swing)
Doubt casts a great shadow
Will hangs out the window
And Misery is sure to follow
Trapped in the waves of time
Leaving for the future; falling in line
Wishing for the past; so sublime
Mr. Low, Mr. Low
Will you
Let me go
(I want to get off this swing)
Mr. Low, Mr. Low
Will you
Let me go.
(I want to get off this swing)
On top of the mountains
Seeing on the trees and the oceans
Getting all the luck from the fountains
But soon I come falling down
And smash into the rocking ground
Mr. Low comes around
Mr. Low, Mr. Low
Will you
Let me go
(I want to get off this swing)
Mr. Low, Mr. Low
Will you
Let me go.
(I want to get off this swing)
Mr. Low, Mr. Low…is me
