Liner Notes

Thanks to the #badsongclub for another great prompt ('enchantment'). I love the feeling of floating in the water, late at night, under the stars.

Lyrics

Late Night Swimming
Jemma Kline

Take a walk along the avenue tonight,
When the only light that’s left is from the moon.
Find the crack left in the fence and slip inside;
I’ll be waiting by the silent swimming pool.

Late night swimming,
Quiet splashing,
For a moment float among the stars with me.

In the morning, you’ll return to daytime sorrows,
With our meeting feeling like a misty dream.
But you’ll find me when the sun goes down tomorrow,
When we’ll dive into our secret silver sea.

Late night swimming,
Quiet splashing,
For a moment float among the stars with me.

(flute bridge)

Late night swimming,
Quiet splashing,
For a moment float among the stars with me.

I love the images in this song and the gorgeous sentiment. Lovely piano ballad. This has such a magical feeling - really special. Nice to hear the flute as well.

I really like how the lyric manifests the prompt without ever naming it. A lovely melody, with the piano and flute.

this is a lovely song very descriptive lyrically, and the music fits perfectly.

Love that last line of the chorus, and nice melodic turns in the Vs. Very cool. I can relate!

One thing that struck me is your use of assonance more than rhyme. I think it fits with the dreamlike character of the song.
