Lyric discussion by midnightfairy25 

Amy does a song on every album for her sister, who passed away. The song seems to be about passing on, but perhaps it's from clinging to her sister in the dead realm and rejoining the living. This is the vibe that i get. Beautiful song.

never thought of it and now i read it again i think its about her sister...thanks

You could be right, but I get the feeling that 'The Other Side' might be more fitted to be about her sister.

I agree Joca, it could also be The Other Side. It actually probably is The Other Side. But I like to think I am right and it is Swimming Home, because to turn the tables like that between life and death in her lyrics would just be so darn clever!
