[00:16.50]Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
[00:23.00]
[00:27.99]The photograph on the dashboard
[00:32.10]taken years ago
[00:35.77]turned around backwards so the windshield shows.
[00:40.75]Every streetlight reveals
[00:43.36]the picture in reverse.
[00:49.06]Still, it's so much clearer.
[00:52.98]I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.
[00:59.59]The moon is low tonight.
[01:03.38]
[01:15.79]Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.
[01:21.51]I'm not sure all these people understand.
[01:28.73]It's not like years ago,
[01:32.77]The fear of getting caught,
[01:37.01]of recklessness and water.
[01:41.37]They cannot see me naked.
[01:45.78]These things, they go away,
[01:49.53]replaced by everyday.
[01:53.70]Nightswimming, remembering that night.
[01:59.73]September's coming soon.
[02:04.30]I'm pining for the moon.
[02:08.57]And what if there were two
[02:12.04]Side by side in orbit
[02:15.28]Around the fairest sun?
[02:19.59]That bright, tight forever drum
[02:23.50]could not describe nightswimming.
[02:27.48]
[02:30.16]You, I thought I knew you.
[02:34.57]You I cannot judge.
[02:37.99]You, I thought you knew me,
[02:41.23]this one laughing quietly
[02:45.33]underneath my breath.
[02:49.21]
[02:50.64]Nightswimming.
[02:56.39]
[03:08.00]
[03:16.28]The photograph reflects,
[03:19.53]every streetlight a reminder.
[03:23.95]Nightswimming
[03:26.30]deserves a quiet night
[03:30.60]
[03:35.22]deserves a quiet night
[03:50.22]
[03:55.70]The End~
