Nightswimming

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
 The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago
 Turned around backwards so the windshield shows
 Every streetlight reveals the 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 gettin' caught
 Of recklessness and water
 They cannot see me naked
 These things, they go away
 Replaced by everyday
 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
