Skinnydipped

(album: Serpentina - 2022)

I'm a little late
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Get your water for the wait
Uh-uh, uh-uh

I dabble in the past, yeah, I said it
I finally admit it
I told you it was over then I skinny-dipped and did it
I shoulda known better but I didn't overthink it
And I probably would've floated but I sank it

Took a dive in the deep and forgot to move
Swam with the fish till my kiss turn blue
I aired out my sheets 'cause they smell like you
I cleaned out the salt in my wounds

And I'm a little late
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Get your water for the wait
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Take you out onto the lake
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Then I'll let you swim away
Uh-uh, uh-uh

I step on every crack, gimme credit
Your ego never fed it
My legs just caught a cold and so I didn't wanna spread it
You told me if I tried to walk away, I would regret it
Maybe if I didn't swim I woulda sweat it

Used to read every story about me and you
Checked out your book, now it's overdue
I tried to return 'cause I'm over you
I cleaned out the salt in my wounds

And I'm a little late
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Get your water for the wait
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Take you out onto the lake
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Then I'll let you swim away
Uh-uh, uh-uh

Acting like you know me
Instead of trying to show me
Say you praise my body
I could love somebody else
Better if I was lonely
Justified to hold me
Maybe if I was the only
Better if I woulda known better

And I'm a little late
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Get your water for the wait
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Take you out onto the lake
Uh-uh, uh-uh
Then I'll let you swim away
Uh-uh, uh-uh
