G C D5 G C A | C | D5 |

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.

G C D5 G C A |

The photograph on the dashboard, taken years ago,

C D5

turned around backwards so the windshield shows.

G C D5 G C A |

Every streetlight reveals the picture in reverse.

C D5

Still, it's so much clearer.

G C D5 G

I forgot my shirt at the water's edge.

C A C | D5 |

The moon is low tonight.

{Play Rhy. Fig. 1}

G C D5 G

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night.

C D5 G5

I'm not sure all these people understand.

C D5 G

It's not like years ago,

C A C D5 G5

The fear of getting caught, of recklessness and water.

C D5 G

They cannot see me naked.

C A C D5 G

These things, they go away, replaced by everyday.

C G C A |

Nightswimming. Remembering that night.

C D5 C C D5 |

September's coming soon. I'm pining for the moon.

G C A C

And what if there were two side by side in orbit

D5 G

around the fairest sun?

C D5 G C A C | D5 |

That bright, tight forever drum could not describe nightswimming.

G C D5 G C A |

You, I thought I knew you. You, I cannot judge.

C D5

You, I thought you knew me.

G C D5 G C

This one laughing quietly underneath my breath.

A C | D5 |

Nightswimming.

The photograph reflects,

D5 G C

every streetlight a reminder.

A C D5 G | C D5|

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night,

G C A C | D5 |

deserves a quiet night.
