Swansea City Association Football Club (/ˈswɒnzi ˈsɪti/; Welsh: Clwb Pêl-droed Dinas Abertawe) are a Welsh professional football club based in Swansea, that plays in the Premier League, the highest level of English football. Swansea City represent England when playing in European competitions, although they have represented Wales in the past. The club were founded in 1912 as Swansea Town and joined the Football League in 1921. The club changed their name in 1969, when they adopted the name Swansea City to reflect Swansea's new status as a city. Swansea have played their home matches at the Liberty Stadium since 2005, having previously played at the Vetch Field since the club were founded.
In 1981, the club were promoted to the original Football League First Division. It was during the following season they came close to winning the league title, but a decline then set near the season's end before finishing sixth, although a club record. It was from here the club suffered a relegation the season after, returning to the Football League Fourth Division a few seasons later, then narrowly avoided relegation to the Football Conference in 2003. The Swansea City Supporters Society Ltd owns 20% of the club, with their involvement hailed by Supporters Direct as "the most high profile example of the involvement of a supporters' trust in the direct running of a club". The club's subsequent climb from the fourth division of English football to the top division is chronicled in the 2014 film, Jack to a King – The Swansea Story.
Quando você me vê
Eu vejo acender outra vez aquela chama
Então pra que se esconder?
Você deve saber
O quanto me ama
Que distância vai guardar nossa saudade?
Que lugar vou te encontrar de novo?
Fazer sinais de fogo
Pra você me ver
Quando eu te vi e te conheci
Não quis acreditar na solidão
Que nem demais em nós dois
Pra não encanar
Eu me arrumo, eu me enfeito, eu me ajeito
Eu interrogo o meu espelho
Espelho que eu me olho
Pra você me ver
Por que você não olha cara a cara?
Fica nesse passa, não passa
O que falta é coragem
Foi atrás de mim na Guanabara
Eu te procurando pela Lapa
Nós perdemos a viagem...
