Al Stewart - I Swam Lyrics

I swam to the edge of the pool
Like a fish on a spool
Feeling you reeling me in
You were there with your drink on a stool
It was keeping you cool
On your face just a trace of a grin
And you sat in your conical hat
You were striking in that
Curling up like a cat
With a tug on a line
Of invisible twine
To the edge of the pool

I swam

I ran to the top of the hill
I was drained of my will
I just had to keep stumbling on
'Til I fell in the gathering chill
To the sound of a bell
With the thought that my future was gone
And you came in your conical hat
As a matter of fact
I was hoping for that
Like the creak of the tree
Carried off in the breeze
To the top of the hill
I ran

And oh in the wink of an eye
See the hours go by
That feel like heaven
Oh, at the edge of a dream
You will be what you seem
But just one night
And now looking back on all that
I remember you sat
In your conical hat
Through the violet deep
Murky waters of sleep
Reaching out for your hand

I swam

I swam
