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 getting 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, |
