[Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Chris Thile, Béla Fleck - Nightswimming lyrics]

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard
Taken years ago turned around backwards
So the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals the picture
In reverse still, it's so much clearer
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge
The moon is low tonight

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
I'm not sure all these people understand
It's not like years ago
The fear of gettin' caught
Of recklessness and water
They cannot see me naked
These things, they go away
Replaced by everyday

Nightswimming, remembering that night
September's coming soon
I'm pining for the moon


And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight forever drum
Could not describe nightswimming

You, I thought I knew you
You, I cannot judge
You, I thought you knew me
This one laughing quietly
Underneath my breath nightswimming

The photograph reflects
Every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
Deserves a quiet night
