When We Swam Songtext
von Thao & the Get Down Stay Down

When we swam our love to pieces
We washed up on messy beaches
You cleaned dry, I would not drift yet
I should drink salt water to forget

Oh why, oh why, oh why, won′t you sing?

Bring your hips to me
Oh, bring your hips, oh, oh
Bring your hips to me
To me
Oh, bring your hips to me
Oh, bring your hips, oh, oh
Bring your hips to me
To me
To me
To me
To me


Well, once I arrived
But you would not receive me
I wanted it all, you could not tell
Then I paid expensive attention to detail

The fall of your face
The wish of the well
The rush of the push
The length of the spell
And you won't

Bring your hips to me
Oh, bring your hips, oh, oh
Bring your hips to me
To me
Oh, bring your hips to me
Oh, bring your hips, oh, oh
Bring your hips to me
To me
To me
To me
To me
To me
To me
To me


You tug so lightly on me
Work like you are on vacation
While I was swept wide
I wept for you across the nation
All my love I deny
When they place their hands on both my sides

When we swam our love to pieces
We washed up on messy beaches
You cleaned dry, I will not drift yet
I should drink salt water to forget

Oh why, oh why, oh why, won′t you sing?
