Lirieke: Swans. Breathing Water.
Take this glass of water, hold it in your hand
Drink the water slowly, don't show an emotion
Take your clothes off, sit on the edge of the bed
Cover yourself with your hands
I'll stand in the corner, I'll stare at the wall
I'll try to remember what you look like sitting there
We're separate bodies
We'll never understand what the other one needs
And it's just like breathing, and it's just like breathing
And it's just like breathing water
Sit there with your clothes off while I look at you
We'll never change
The world's getting smaller with every second we breath
When it's inside you, you've changed
Drink the water slowly, don't show an emotion
Take your clothes off, sit on the edge of the bed
Cover yourself with your hands
I'll stand in the corner, I'll stare at the wall
I'll try to remember what you look like sitting there
We're separate bodies
We'll never understand what the other one needs
And it's just like breathing, and it's just like breathing
And it's just like breathing water
Sit there with your clothes off while I look at you
We'll never change
The world's getting smaller with every second we breath
When it's inside you, you've changed
