Swimmer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The way your arm felt
Under the soft felt of the blanket
You may not know it
But I am loving you
With my fingers on your shoulders
I am loving you
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted to sing for you
So I'm gonna sing for you
I hope you're listening to me wherever you are
[Chorus]
Come a little closer
Give me something I can hold
I wanna know they can't take this away from me
Take this away, take this away from me, take this away
Come a little closer
Give me something I can hold
I wanna know they can't take this away from me
Take this away, take this away from mе, take this away
[Verse 2]
And I knew you
When you wеre swimming
You were stronger than I ever was
And I am loving you
I am loving you
I am loving you
I am loving you
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted to sing for you
So I'm gonna sing for you
[Chorus]
Come a little closer
Give me something I can hold
I wanna know they can't take this away from me
Take this away, take this away from me, take this away
Come a little closer
Give me something I can hold
I wanna know they can't take this away from me
Take this away, take this away from me, take this away
Take this away from me, take this away, take this away from me, take this away
[Outro]
Take this away
Take this away

What did Half Waif say about "Swimmer"?
I wrote “Swimmer” after visiting my aunt, who has Alzheimer’s. I’ll never forget the summer we were swimming at the lake where our family has a cabin—her mind was already slipping, but her body was still strong enough to swim across to the other side. It was incredible, how both things could be true...
