I wish I had this on vinyl
I would love to have the full sound of this playing over and over as I write
I wish I were flying by night through clouds
There was once a girl
who held her breath underwater
for so long she grew gills
She opened her eyes and breathed free
before she dove away into the depths
and all I saw was a shimmer
But as a boy I would look above
At the mountains drifting past in communion
While the waves above rippled and silver
they shimmered
in the Sun
As now I look through the dark
at the moon in its shimmer
and I wonder if waves still pass above
and I wonder how long must I stand here
holding my breath
