Swimming In '99 Lyrics

I envy you, I always have
Your easy confidence and steady path
I wish I loved you with seven hearts
So I could pass the days we're apart

How can it go like a fire in the night?
Out on it's own, that heavenly light
It gets cold

We went swimming once in '99
You lost your glasses in the water, you were blind
I see it now in memories
Unshy and full of grace
As you come from the sea

How can it go like a fire in the night?
Out on it's own, that heavenly light
It gets cold

You will recover
You will recover
Oh, you know you'll recover
All your lost time

I envy you, I always will
And I can tell there's something in me for you still
So I'll follow you and you follow me
And maybe some day you and I will get to see

How it can go like a fire in the night
Out on it's own, that heavenly light
It gets cold
