The Lake

This house is full of secrets This house smells of ghosts Dreams that never woke Dreams that never woke Nightmares never spoke aloud Outside the water's black This one won't throw back A lifetime is too long A lifetime is too long Let's say no more about it Listen to me I can only say this once Are you listening See these empty hands Knowing it was all for you But I'll see you again Down by the lake Sleeping beauty stares The whole world could be hers But after all these years After all these years I'll say no more about it Listen to me I can only say this once Are you listening See these empty hands Knowing it was all for you Til I see you again Yes, I'll see you again When I see you again Down by the lake This house smells of ghosts
