| Intro: |
| Verses & Bridge: |
| 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 water's edge. |
| The moon is low tonight. |
| Repeat Bridge |
| 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. |
| Repeat Bridge |
| Solo: |
| The photograph reflects, |
| every streetlight a reminder. |
| Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, |
| deserves a quiet night. |
