Swimming - Phil Manzanera

Let’s go swimming

In our Hockney pool

Ten palms are swaying

The water’s feeling warm

Sun light shimmers

Through a crystal lens

Dancing patterns flicker

Miro

On mosaic below

Walk to the lighthouse

Waves splashing down

Eyes on the horizon

Out from Cadiz town

Let’s not waste this precious life

As time keeps slipping away

Let’s not waste

This time

This time

It’s you and me

From the start

Right on down

The line

This time

This time

It’s you and me

Church bells are ringing

In Bathampton lane

Kingfishers flying

The clouds begin to rain

Stroll on the towpatch

Climb up to the town

Right around the circus

Where we gather up

What’s lost and found

Back to the cottage

Sun streaming through

On and on together

In bluebell woods

Let’s not waste this precious life

As time keeps slipping away

Let’s not waste

This time

This time

It’s you and me

From the start

And right on down

The line

This time

This time

It’s you and me

This time

This time

It’s you and me

This time

This time

It’s you and me
