Nightswimming

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
I'm not sure all these people understand
It's not like years ago,
The fear of getting caught,
Of recklessness and water
They cannot see me naked
These things, they go away,
Replaced by everyday
"Nightswimming"
 R.E.M.
* written by Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe

This one always makes me cry, although I'm not sure why. There is a sadness and soulfulness to Michael Stipe that I feel - even when I don't want to.
