Swimming by the Pond by How Great Were the Robbins

It's a wonder tall trees ain't laying down 

- Neil Young


I. Not Here


It goes with wine

Swimming by the pond

Cold like ice

Frozen to the core

I left my mind

Standing by the clothes

Like salt now in water I dissolve


I know this feeling like I know my hands

Pours in my mind but can't fill my head

Wish I could yield my assertion forever

Reach me and deep down I swim


We'll be in tears till the winter ends

Till the last drop of water I dissolve


II. Not Now


Don't say goodbye like you are

Just human to my own very eyes

Like you are about to leave my life

I'm so one dimensional

No change in sight, a simple kind

Don't leave me behind

Not here, not now, it's not the time


To drown in this blue world

I know it's not the time

To drown in this blue world

I'll wait tomorrow

I know it's not the time

I'll wait tomorrow


Tomorrow

Don't say it's too hollow

You reach me and deep down I go

Reach me and deep down I go


I'll wait tomorrow (Not here)

I'll wait tomorrow (Not now)


Reach me and deep down I go

In the water
