(over and over again for the whole song... the two lines above are played

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago
Turn around backwards so the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals a picture and a verse
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
The recklessness in water
They cannot see me naked
These things they go away
Replaced by every day
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
A bright type could never drawn
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

(over and over again for the
..whole song... the two lines
..above are played
for each line)
Nightswimming deserves a quiet
..night
The photograph on the dashboard
..taken years ago
Turn around backwards so the
..windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals a
..picture and a verse
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
The recklessness in water
They cannot see me naked
These things they go away
Replaced by every day
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
A bright type could never drawn
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
