Could Have Done Anything

You said, "Let's go swimming On the far side of the island" That night no one was around I locked my bike to the fence A couple glasses of wine in Threw my helmet on the ground Far from the bustle we stood shivering We could have done anything We could have done anything The corrugated edges of a cardboard box The flotsam and the jetsam strewn across the dock The marina band playing some distant rock The moonlight on your back when you took your shirt off The ferry running late, we had to watch the clock You reached out for my hand and said, "Come on in" We could have done anything We could have done anything Every window you smashed Every car that you crashed Every friend who you stole from Every sign you defaced Every message you erased Every street, every slogan The rain falling gently, the glint of your rings We could have done anything We could have done anything We could have done anything We could have done anything
