paroles de chanson 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
