The Diver

Standing
High above us all
At the edge of
The diving board
Smiling and waving
Before letting himself fall
The faintest splash
As the water engulfed him
It was beautiful to watch
So beautiful to watch
He was propably
The world's best diver
Probably
The world's best diver
He was
The world's
Best
Diver
Probably
Touching the bottom
He pushed away
With both legs
And cut through the surface
Like a fish
The faintest splash
As the water engulfed him
It was beautiful to watch
So beautiful to watch
I stay high above
He was
The world's
Best diver
But he could not swim
It was beautiful to watch
So beautiful to watch
