Nightswimming Lyrics

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago Turned around backwards so the windshield shows Every streetlight reveals a picture in reverse Still it's so much clearer, I forgot my shirt At the water's edge, the moon is low tonight
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night I'm not sure all these people understand It's not like years ago, the fear of getting caught The recklessness and water, they cannot see me naked These things they go away, replaced by every day
Nightswimming, remembering that night September's coming soon, I'm pining for the moon And what if there were two side by side in orbit Around the fairest sun, that bright, tight, forever drum Could not describe nightswimming
You, I thought I knew you, you I cannot judge You, I thought you knew me, this one laughing quietly Underneath my breath, nightswimming
The photograph reflects, every streetlight a reminder Nightswimming, deserves a quiet night Deserves a quiet night
