Lyrics
Swimming
He falls down?he can?t move
She?s not there
And he buries himself in the sand
She?s not there
Waves wash over him
Drowning, he knows he should dig
There has to be some way out of this
Drowning, he knows he should dig
She stays home
He?s not there
And she paints what she sees in her mind
He?s not there
Oil on canvas, she begins
Drowning, she knows she should swim
There has to be some way in to this
Swimming, she knows she will live
He digs out?he stands up
And he walks back to the car
With the sun going down behind him
he drives himself back to her
