"Swimmer" lyrics

"Swimmer"

You're swimmin' in the daydream
And I'm just watchin' from the bank
You're covered in sun and I forgot my camera
Wishin' it was real
And I try and keep you in my eyes
Permanently save it into my mind

From here the world's spinnin' and I swear I'd drown
Just to have you come hover over me
Speak somethin' close to me
Oh, it's gettin' late
So I look for you when I sleep
But it's no good 'cause dreams don't keep

April was the last time I think I saw you
You were carryin' lightnin'
The way you walked into the room
If I was a flower, I would've opened up and bloomed
I say I don't care, but I'm a liar
Look how easy a heart can catch on fire
I say I don't care, but I'm a liar
Look how easy a heart can catch on fire
