Max Stalling - The Girl By The Lake текст песни

Well the picture I have
Is you standin' in front of a lake
And there's sun on your face
And you're smiling in a way
That really gives nothing away

And just judging by the shadows
Well, it's noon or maybe one or two
You got the rest of the day
And your whole life to play
And the world is a-waitin' on you

And I really just can't remember
The night that you went away
Oh, it happened so fast,
So long in the past,
Did I ever know this girl by the lake?
Did I even know the girl by the lake?

And to live is to fly
And I'm a-learnin' to try
Sometimes it's all such a chore
And if the breeze doesn't come,
The clouds block the sun -
You've got to work harder to soar

We're all here just a-dancin'
Like we know what we're trying to do
But the fact is you can't,
So you dance and you dance -
Keep on moving 'til the music is through

And there's nothin' that says that you have to,
No rules that say you must
And what may seem unfair
Is just fate's way of daring us
All to learn how to trust

And the sun on a butterfly's wing,
Stretching them out to dry,
And a breeze to help you with the chores
But if the breeze doesn't come,
The clouds block the sun -
You've got to work harder to soar

Well, the picture I have
Is you standin' in front a lake
And there's sun on your face,
And you're smiling in a way
That really gives nothing away

Did I ever know this girl by the lake?
Did I even know this girl by the lake?
