Lyrics Great Lake Swimmers

Great Lake Swimmers

Unison Falling Into Harmony

Is gravity the same for you

Or have you fallen deeply too

Into the light of a dream

Like unison falling into harmony

The only thing between us is a breath of air

A river of fear, a ship we can't steer

A curtain of rain, a layer of skin

A determined stare, a dare

Sweep across the floor

Like the wind through the islands

Step once, and turn twice

And move like the current

I will try to know you

Though you defy my grasp

Your beauty is static

But steady, and fast

Spin once, and turn twice, and fall in with abandoned

Unison falling into harmony

I love the way that your lights come on

When you've been lit with some happy thought

So save up your tears for the next time it rains

And flow across the floor

Like the unstoppable river

I will try to know you

Though you defy my grasp

Your beauty is gentle

But forceful, and fast
