lyrics
The sun has hardly warmed the water when it crashes on the sand
You hoped it would be warmer, you say, pulling out your hand
The warmer waters get the more the oceans expand
You told me first and then I didn't really understand
If I could turn back time
I would
And I’d be good
I would always be kind
To you
You say "Look at this, the world still spins and beauty will never go
It was there before and will be there more when there’s no I to behold"
How suitable, you the buoy, you arms like silver fins
Your head afloat the golden glow of waves crashing in
If I could make this last
Take more of this moment
Trade in some of my past
You swim
You in it all, letting it all in
You hoped it would be warmer, you say, pulling out your hand
The warmer waters get the more the oceans expand
You told me first and then I didn't really understand
If I could turn back time
I would
And I’d be good
I would always be kind
To you
You say "Look at this, the world still spins and beauty will never go
It was there before and will be there more when there’s no I to behold"
How suitable, you the buoy, you arms like silver fins
Your head afloat the golden glow of waves crashing in
If I could make this last
Take more of this moment
Trade in some of my past
You swim
You in it all, letting it all in

An Overview on Phenomenal Nature
by Cassandra Jenkinssupported by 25 fans who also own “Swimmer”
I'm tempted to call this wellness pop. Across these tracks, Jenkins accurately chronicles our necessary (although maybe impossible?) quest to become whole. Jenkins isn't really offering a definitive answer to what we should do, but only that we never stop searching.
