Listen to a short sample from this song, All Winter we have Waited (mp3, 0.7mb)

All Winter We Have Waited

All winter we have waited
For the chance to swim outside
The Forty Foot's been waiting
And now the sun's arrived
And I will meet you in town
When you have finished work
And we will go together
And together we'll be first
And I think you know I was in love
And how much I loved
Our evenings at The Forty Foot
They were so glorious
Really just so glorious

And I remember last year
The night we said goodbye
It seemed the weather had turned
And the winter had arrived
But there are hardy people who've
Been swimming here since then
But they've got blood like turpentine
And alligator skin
And I think they know I was in love
And how much I loved
Our evenings at The Forty Foot
They were so glorious
Really just so glorious

And sometimes under water
I call and Angel comes
And I thank her cos she taught me
To swim when I was young
And I think she knows I was in love
And how much I loved
Our evenings at The Forty Foot
They were so glorious
And did you feel it did you feel it
Did you feel it on your skin
And did you feel it in your bones
And did you hear it did you hear it
Did you hear it in the laughter
Of the people in the water
And did you see it did you see it
Did you see it did you see it
Did you see it in my eyes
And did you see it in my smile
And did you see me fly
