Oh me oh my
How large a desire
To run from the streets in only our sheets
Kicking our shoes off and playing in the heat
I would watch a bead of sweat drip down
Tracing the curves of yourself frown
Forward for win or forward for war
Because we should be swimming
Going long into the night as if we were different
We Should be swimming
Oh we should be swimming
Going long into the night as if we were different
We should be swimming
Oh me oh my
I'm feverish with this life
Stumbling through hoops tripping over these loops
Pushed by the pen and forced by the boots
So I look to you for some release
Touched things aside in such a peace
Boozing your hand so hard I squeeze
Because we should be swimming
Going long into the night as if we were different
We Should be swimming
Oh we should be swimming
Going long into the night as if we were different
We should be swimming
Hold your breath
Float down to this sea bed
Then we'll see how long we can sleep
Hold your breath
Float down to this sea bed
Then we'll see how long we can sleep
Hold your breath
Float down to this sea bed
Then we'll see how long we can sleep
Hold your breath
Float down to this sea bed
Then we'll see how long we can sleep
Because we should be swimming
Going on into the night as if we were different
We Should be swimming
Oh we should be swimming
Going on into the night as if we were different
We should be swimming
