Still, it's so much clearer. I forgot my shirt at the water's edge. | The moon is low tonight. {Play Rhy. Fig. 1} 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. This one laughing quietly underneath my breath. | Nightswimming. {Play Rhy.
