Night swimming 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

This one laughing quietly underneath my breath

Nightswimming

The photograph reflects

Every streetlight a reminder

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night

Deserves a quiet night
