Swingers Don’t Fall in Love
C 2018 Davis/Greenwald

It started gradually as these things do, dippin’ in a toe and then a thigh or two
plunging in the stream, reveling in the steam, we never knew we’d be living such a dream.

And all the rules were clear right from the start, you dive in with your body, but you never give your heart
The lifestyle is dandy, the turnstile so handy, hello everybody we’re Jeremy and Mandy!

We always kept our feelings in check, then Billy caused a real train wreck

and now there’s no more puppy piles, no more swinger cruise
no more soft swap, no more cherry lube
we had a pact, to keep us intact, but Billy showed it all was a bluff
swingers don’t fall, swingers don’t fall in love

We’d have a drink or two and then we go downstairs
In all configurations, trios, quads and pairs
We filled our calendars with names like, Pam and Kevin, Laura and James
Always playing by the rules of the game
We’d always kept our feelings in check, then Billy caused a real train wreck

and now there’s no more puppy piles, no more swinger cruise,
no more soft swap, no more cherry lube
we had a pact, to keep us intact, but Billy showed it all was a bluff
swingers don’t fall, swingers don’t fall in love

I won’t regret the choice I made cause love demands a price
I got swept up in the world of him and started a new life
but then Billy changed, and said the life we lead was now a sin
So I burned all my bridges just to prove my love to him

My mind is wandering as we sit in the pew, lost in a daydream of the life that I once knew.
As the organ starts to play, Billy he smiles my way, takes my hand as he bows his head to pray.
They say that love will set you free, but love has made a prisoner of me

and now there’s no more lifestyle, no more swinger cruise,
no more hall pass, no more cherry lube,
we’d made a pact, thought it was a fact, but Billy showed it all was a bluff
swingers don’t fall, swingers don’t fall in love
swingers don’t fall, swingers don’t fall in love
