Swim Between Trees (Eleni Drake Version)

[Verse 1]

Betting on angel numbers

Knowing that the clouds would cover

Stormed in and stole my thunder

We still learn about each other

I know you like to sing

And I'd say I’m more of a hummer

The day I learned your tune, I knew

I'd never hum another

Bungeed the jungle bummer

Swam between the trees of summer

My love's a dragonfly

Who paints her eyes in every color

Self-care, not self-obsession

Learned from your self-expression

Wag my tail with aggression

Dumb or happy? That’s the question

[Verse 2]

All our friends are Wednesday drinkers

Makeshift shamans, overthinkers

If a problem starts to linger

Point the way and suck the finger

Swinging our solution swords

Made from steel we can't afford

I get pissed and say we're poor

Then I get kissed, pulled to the floor

Yes, you have me on my knees

Yes, you can do what you please

'Cause you bought into everything

Commercial as the cold foam cream

All this time, I can't believe

You're still coming home with me

My mind's a river draped with leaves

And you're still swimming through the trees

[Chorus]

Washing over you

Every afternoon

In every monsoon

Washing over you

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Washing over you

Every afternoon

In every monsoon

Washing over you
