Night Swimming lyrics
Songwriters: Stipe, Michael; Berry, William; Buck, Peter; Mills, Mike
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 waters 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
This one laughing quietly underneath my breath
Nightswimming
The photograph reflects every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night
