The Swallow The Divine Comedy

The Swallow - The Divine Comedy
A big tin box of books and writing paper
(A small aneroid barometer)
And other things that need to be kept dry
(Like nightclothes)
I won it as a prize at school
(Three biscuit tins with bread and tea and...)
Salt and bread, lots and lots of eggs
(Separately wrapped for fear of smashing)

A frying pan, a saucepan, and a kettle
(Lots of plates and spoons and forks and...)
Two ground sheets with tents wrapped up inside
(A seedcake)
A long coil of stout grass rope
(Two sacks stuffed with blankets and rye)
Tins of corned beef, tins of sardines
I think we have all that we need

Swallow
I don't know what I would do
Without you
There's barely a day that goes by
I don't picture you in my mind
And smile
Swallow
