I Sing I Swim

When the birds are sleeping
 That's when the trees sing
 You left your winter clothes
 And your teeth marks in my skin
 So shake the leaves off the trees
 Watch them float down the stream
 Your son, your daughter
 Swimming in the water
 ♪
 And I miss you even when you're around
 I'm a black cloud sending lightning to the ground
 So darling please, show your teeth
 Just one more dance to help me sleep
 Owl girl, cold water eyes
 Fill the past with friendly nights
 Human skin can be hard to live in
 You'll feel better in the morning
 Swim, wash your hands in the lake
 Swim, you've got a heart in the way
 ♪
 Trails lost in the snow
 Make way for winter's eerie glow
 And that black rock in your bedroom
 I hope you'll climb it soon
 In your boat tied to a tree
 I hope you'll find the sea
 Throw me a dream please
 It's been a dreamless sleep
 For such a long time
 Such a long time
 Sing myself awake
 Watch the branches break
 No one could ever take your place
 Sing, wash your face in the lake
 Sing, you've got a diamond under your skin
