Swimming Pool
Bess Atwell
Did I beat myself to the punchline of my life?
Following my mother's footsteps, I fall in and out of time
We search for games, playing the ones in which
Our love feels more profound
I'll be the heroine waiting for my boy to knock me down
I'll hide the paper and radio tonight
So come the morning, my milk won't sour and you'll be on my mind
It's not forever, but baby, I can make it feel alright
I hope the heavens give us time before they rain on our delight
You are my swimming pool
I close my eyes and pinch my nose
You are the only one
Who goes with me there
I see the pink and blue
I love this fun I never knew
But life still waits for me
I swear I heard it's true
If I need to know
Everything shining out loud
Am I just a foolish girl?
I sing you a song
How frivolous I become
But I've never had more fun
You are my swimming pool
I close my eyes and pinch my nose
You are the only one
Who goes with me there
I see the pink and blue
And I love this fun I never knew
But life still waits for me
I swear I heard it's true
You are my swimming pool
I close my eyes and pinch my nose
You are the only one
Who goes with me there
I see the pink and blue
I love this fun I never knew
But life still waits for me
I swear I heard it's true
