Swimming in '99 Songtext
von Golden Suits

I envy you
I always have
You easy confidence
And steady path
I wish I loved you
With seven hearts
So I could pass the days
We′re apart

How can it go
Like a fire in the night?
Out on its own
That heavenly light
It gets cold


We went swimming once
In '99
You lost your glasses
In the water
You were blind
I see it now
In memory
Unshy and full of grace
As you come from the sea

How can it go
Like a fire in the night?
Out on its own
That heavenly light
It gets cold

You will recover
You will recover
Oh
You know you′ll recover
All your lost time

I envy you
I always will
And I can tell there's something in me for you still
So I'll follow you
And you follow me
And maybe someday
You and I
Will get to see


How can it go
Like a fire in the night?
Out on its own
That heavenly light
It gets cold
