swim - peter blegvad lyrics

Loading...

i threw my arms around you
i nearly drowned you
and you said “swim.”
there was no other thing to
grab hold of and cling to
you said “swim.”
just you and me
the sky and the sea**
“swim.”
what happened to
the captain and crew?
“swim” you said, “swim.”

i can’t hold on much longer
i’m paralyzed with cold
you said “think of all those sailors
who were sleeping in the hold
who went down without a murmur
and whose story won’t be told
if we don’t live to tell it**
swim.”

will anyone search for us?
say prayers in church for us?
you said “swim.”
then you grew weak
when you couldn’t speak
i said “swim.”

if i come back in another life
i’d like to be a bird
swimming in the wind
towards the sun
and if i could travel back in time
i’d like to have a word
in god’s ear before creation had begun

then day became night
we swam by the light of the stars
on the face of the deep
we swam in our sleep…
i don’t need to tell you
what my dreams were all about
i dreamed i was home in bed
getting ready to pass out
i was falling into darkness
when i heard you shout**
“dry land dead ahead” you said
“swim.”
