(I somehow lost my post in the middle of reviewing it--sorry if this ends up posted twice! Now let's see if I can remember what I wrote.)
I was talking with a friend about swimming and she said she started "swimming for life" x number of years ago. I got the sense that she meant that it was more than a good workout--it kept her "alive." I have to admit that it has that kind of effect for me, too. At the risk of sounding too new-agey, it's nourishing in more than a physical sense.
What does swimming mean to you? How does that compare to other sports or activities you do? How does that meaning influence your goals and performance?

Ande Your song is great and all.....But can I suggest a couple of very minor changes though....Sub out Texas in the first stanza for Tennessee....and Sub out Longhorn in the last stanza for Volunteer.....I think the actual color you chose to write your song in would fit the theme a little better with these minor editings don't you?.....IMHO only of course.
