It Is Safe

Let's go for a swim

out into the waves

when the lifeguards leave

it's ours for the day

let's feel like we're brave

let's give it some meaning

even if it's shallow

even if it is fake

it is safe as long as i see you way out in the water

with no thought of going under

we could be out here for hours

lying in the sand i fall asleep and dream of the summer

when we'd slip behind the pool and go with nature

we'd lie beside the chlorine bottles

after sometime sleep and dream of summers

when things could not be so easy

if you're looking for something

out in the waves

at least it is something

you know that you're safe

it is sound as long as i see you way out in the water

with no thought of going under

we could be out here for hours

lying in the sand i fall asleep and dream of the summer

when we'd slip behind the pool and go with nature

we'd lie beside the chlorine bottles

after sometimes sleep and dream of summers

when things could not be so easy

i see birds above the waves sit on the air and wait for something

i know someday i'll be done with all this waiting

so i'll lay down on the couch after sometime sleep

and dream of the summers

when things could not be so terribly easy
