The Nits
Swimming
Mister Bluebird on your shoulder
Stays very calm on his feet
I don't know why
Sometimes my eyes are swimming

Look at the way we were talking
Strangers for so many years
I've been away
You spent the day swimming

I'm sitting down by my window
Looking outside at the rain
I don't know why
Sometimes my eyes are swimming

Laurel leaves and thyme
Salt and pepper, I'm cooking
Oranges and honey
Coriander, open sesame, cooking

But I don't know what it is
What is moving her
And what she's diving for

Mister Bluebird on your shoulder
Stays very calm on his feet
I don't know why
Sometimes my eyes are swimming
Swimming
Swimming
Swimming
