Lyrics

At noon the wind comes through

Describing the time when the wind comes through at noon.

Across the bay on a clear day

Observing the view across the bay on a clear day.

And I can watch the boats come in and set their anchors

Reflecting on the scene of boats coming in and anchoring.

And my folks are away at the store

Mentioning that the speaker's parents are away at the store.

So I don't have to listen to anyone say anything

Expressing relief from not having to listen to anyone in the absence of parents.


And I'll swim out as far as I can

Desiring to swim as far as possible.

And float on my back

Choosing to float on the back, suggesting a relaxed state.

Just waiting for nothing

Expressing a sense of waiting without a specific purpose.


I hope they never come back to this house

Expressing a desire for the speaker's folks to never return to the house.

It's a lot more fun alone

Believing that being alone is more enjoyable.

I can do anything I want

Emphasizing the freedom to do anything in the absence of others.

So I'm swimming

Stating the action of swimming, possibly metaphorical.

More like floating

Qualifying the swimming as more like floating, indicating a leisurely activity.

And I'll just stay out here until the night comes crashing down

Committing to staying outside until nightfall.


And I'll swim out as far as I can

Repeating the desire to swim as far as possible.

And float on my back

Reiterating the choice to float on the back and wait without a specific purpose.

Just waiting for nothing

Expressing a sense of waiting for nothing.

They always come home at the wrong time

Commenting on the inconvenience of others returning at the wrong time.

Like when I'm alright and don't need no one at all

Stating that the speaker is alright and doesn't need anyone at the moment.
