Swimmer

from Villain You In by Barnaby Jones

lyrics

I never knew you were such a good swimmer
took my hand and stopped me from sinking
and that ship on the distant horizon
keeps us floating and fighting.
stare at anything for too long, you'll see everything wrong
but I'll remember your face.

They'll never replace what we started to prove
but I never wanted any power over you
the time and the place wasn't wrong we were true.
but i never wanted any power over you

I never knew I was such a good liar
you took my words and stopped them from spinning
and some ship on the distant horizon
still keeping us floating, fucking and fighting.
you stare at anyone for too long, you'll see everyone wrong
but I'll remember your face

They'll never erase what we started to prove
but I never wanted any power over you
the time and the place wasn't wrong we were true
but I never wanted any power over you

not over you
not over you
over you

stare at anything for too long, you'll see everything wrong.
I'll remember your face.
