I Sing I Swim |
When the birds are sleeping |
That’s when the trees sing |
You left your winter clothes |
And your teeth marks in my skin |
So shake the leaves off the trees |
Watch them float down the stream |
Your son, your daughter |
Swimming in the water |
And I miss you |
Even when you’re around |
I’m a black cloud |
Sending lightning to the ground |
Darling, please show your teeth |
Just one more dance to help me sleep |
All good, cold water eyes |
Fill the past with friendly nights |
Human skin can be hard to live in |
You’ll feel better in the morning |
Swim, wash your hands in the lake |
Swim, you got a heart in the way |
Trails lost in the snow |
Make way for winter’s eerie glow |
And that black rock in your bedroom |
I hope you’ll climb it soon |
In your boat tied to a tree |
I hope you’ll find the sea |
Throw me a dream please |
It’s been a dreamless sleep |
For such a long time |
Such a long time |
Sing myself awake |
Watch the branches break |
No one could |
Ever take your place |
Swim, wash your face in the lake |
Sing, you’ve got a diamond under your skin |
