Nightswimming by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago,
turned around backwards so the windshield shows.
Every street light reveals a 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 getting caught
The recklessness in water
They cannot see me naked
These things they go away
Replaced by every day
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?
The bright tide forever drawn
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 street light a reminder
Nightswimming
Deserves a quiet night
Deserves a quiet night

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago,
turned around backwards so the windshield shows.
Every street light reveals a 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 getting caught
The recklessness in water
They cannot see me naked
These things they go away
Replaced by every day
Nightswimming,

Nightswimming (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Nadar de noche merece una noche tranquila
La fotografía en el salpicadero tomada hace años,
puesta al revés para que se vea el parabrisas.
Cada farola revela una imagen al revés
Aun así, es mucho más claro
Olvidé mi camisa a la orilla del agua
La luna está baja esta noche
Nadar de noche merece una noche tranquila
No estoy seguro de que toda esta gente entienda
No es como hace años
El miedo a ser atrapado
La imprudencia en el agua
No pueden verme desnudo
Estas cosas se van
Reemplazadas por el día a día
Nadar de noche,
recordando esa noche
Septiembre se acerca
Anhelo la luna
¿Y si hubiera dos
Una al lado de la otra en órbita alrededor del sol más hermoso?
La marea brillante siempre atraída
No podría describir nadar de noche
Tú, pensé que te conocía
Tú, no puedo juzgar
Tú, pensé que me conocías
Este riendo en voz baja
Por lo bajo
Nadar de noche
La fotografía refleja
Cada farola un recordatorio
Nadar de noche
Merece una noche tranquila
Merece una noche tranquila
