slide into the cool mud
underneath the pines
somewhere to your right or left
is my body you can find
we are swimming with no clothes on
in a river in the dark
and i am holding on to you boy
in the faint light of the stars
so you wade out across the marsh
water up to your waist
carry our stuff above your head
‘til the dune comes to a crest
we are swimming with no clothes on
in a river in the dark
and i am holding on to you boy
in the faint light of the stars
but sometimes i feel it
in a dream i know i been there
we were sleeping by the ocean
we were laughing on the warm sand
we stay up all night
and we wake up in the sunlight
we got dreams we keep together
we got time to spend oh hell yeah
we are swimming with no clothes on
in a river in the dark
and i am holding on to you boy
in the faint light of the stars
we are lying
on the beach now
everything is warm
we are staying up
through a wild night
in the faint light
of the headlights
of passing cars
slide into the cool mud
underneath the pines
somewhere to your right or left
is my body you can find
we are swimming with no clothes on
in a river in the dark
and i am holding on to you boy
in the faint light of the stars
so you wade out across the marsh
water up to your waist
carry our stuff above your head
‘til the dune comes to a crest
we are swimming with no clothes on
in a river in the dark
and i am holding on to you boy
in the faint light of the stars
but sometimes i feel it
in a dream i know i been there
we were sleeping by the ocean
we were laughing on the warm sand
we stay up all night
and we wake up in the sunlight
we got dreams we keep together
we got time to spend oh hell yeah
we are swimming with no clothes on
in a river in the dark
and i am holding on to you boy
in the faint light of the stars
we are lying
on the beach now
everything is warm
we are staying up
through a wild night
in the faint light
of the headlights
of passing cars

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
I just started listening to this album today and am IN LOVE! Every track is perfect.
I'm slightly sad I didn't start listening to boygenius until but happy to be a fan of their music <3 lissie_a
Sparkling synthpop with an emphasis on high-wattage chords and the kind of melodies that burrow themselves deep in the brain. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 1, 2023
