lyrics

I missed the fairy cross the water
now it looks like ill have to swim
the silent sillowette drifts slowly cross the channel
the sun is sinking and growing dim

Eyes like glass, one foot in the water
dimond needles carress my skin
I see the boat glow and they know that I know
that, I'm not going to win but I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim

"Give up, Go home."
softly pleads the water
she says that I will die before I touch the shore
I know the water is cold but I keep moving my bones
but the freezing rain I just cant ignore

"Come on, Keep up, Dont let me beat you"
He says kindly mocking my every move
I hate you blue moon, leave me to my labor
I know that I'm not going to win but I swim and I swim and I swim and I

I have made my ocean bed and now I must live in it
I had passed the point of no return before I had even begin
at last ms. Atlantic O you know how to make a man feel at home
Chasing your dreams no matter the cost is the price paid in full when we swim

And I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim and I swim ect...
