Swimming In Miami

Lyrics

I'm alone above the atmosphere
 And no one looking up can find me here
 'Cause I can close my eyes and disappear
 (Disappear, disappear)
 When I climb the stairs to watch the sun
 Above the station walls the colors run
 To fill the swimming pool when I am done
 (I am done, I am done)
 I am the captain of an oil tanker
 That travels through your veins
 When the satellites hang all around
 And I can finally hear the lovely sound
 When all the engines in the back room die down
 (Die down, die down)
 All the airships move across the sky
 And my equipment just keeps standing by
 The planets glow and intensify
 (Intensify, intensify)
 I am the pilot of a cargo airplane
 That travels through your veins
 When you are lying half-asleep in your room
 
 Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon
 Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell
 It could be raining, but then you can never tell
 If you're alone in this awful downpour
 Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door
 ♪
 In the evening light, the boulevard
 Conceals the night with disregard
 For all the workers in a West Coast shipyard
 (Shipyard, shipyard)
 When I rearrange the silverware
 And reinstall the lights and captain's chair
 I'll lift the ceiling off to breathe the ocean air
 (Ocean air, ocean air)
 I am the engineer of forty freight trains
 That travel through your veins.
 When you are lying half-asleep in your room
 Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon
 Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell
 It could be raining, but then you can never tell
 If you're awake in this awful downpour
 Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door
 When you are swimming in Miami at night
 I'm all around you in the traffic and city light
