aqua profunda!

I saw you in the lane next to me
You were doing freestyle
Then you switched it around to a little bit of backstroke
I couldn't see you underneath
Your swimming cap, but it appeared that you had
Dark coloured hair, maybe it was blonde for all I know

I had goggles on, they were getting foggy
I much prefer swimming to jogging
I tried my very best to impress you
Held my breath longer than I normally do

I was getting dizzy, my hair was wet and frizzy
Felt my muscles burn, I took a tumble
Turn for the worse, it's a curse my lack
Of athleticism sunk like a stone
Like a first owners home loan
When I came to, you and your towel were gone
