Lyrics The Swimmer - Esmé Patterson
You
were
born
on
a
day
of
flood
Pier
was
sunk
and
the
water
kept
rising
And
all
through
the
night
your
mother
fought
Then
you
swam
out,
Barely
crying
Oh
you′re
the
swimmer
You're
the
swimmer
And
I,
a
bird
in
the
sky
And
I,
a
bird
in
the
sky
You
were
born
with
hands
rough
And
a
heart,
clean
and
strong
And
I
was
born
dying
With
a
heart
familiar
with
flying
Oh
you′re
the
swimmer
You're
the
swimmer
And
I,
a
bird
in
the
sky
And
I,
a
bird
in
the
sky
And
the
bird
may
love
the
fish,
But
where,
where
will
they
live?
Oh
yes,
the
bird
may
love
the
fish,
But
where
will
they
live?
You
were
born
in
a
thunderstorm
That
struck
the
land,
rolling
from
the
ocean
And
I
was
born
in
October
To
the
color
and
the
cold
The
sun
was
shining
Oh
you're
the
swimmer
You′re
the
swimmer
And
I,
a
bird
in
the
sky
And
I,
a
bird
in
the
sky
