Elysian Fields : "Lady in the lake"

 

 Used to go skinny dipping
Trapping love in a lake waiting
Slowly breaking sun with a rake

Now the pool in your heart is frozen
And I never did learn how to skate
But it doesn't matter anyway
I'm on the wrong side of the water

Oh won't you listen to
the lady in the lake
We've drifted swiftly
Path through sails tand the breakers
With buried treasure
There was nothing to take

And now the pool
in your mouth is frozen
And I never did learn how to skate
But it doesn't matter anyway
I'm on the wrong side of the water

Oh won't you listen to
the lady in the lake
No it doesn't matter anyway
I'm on the wrong side of the water
She's frozen lovers who left her
And at first warmth came the ice

And the hoary frost
of heaven hath gendered us
And the water's eye's hid with a stone
Look into the deep
Come to me
No it doesn't matter anyway
I'm on the wrong side of the water
She's frozen lovers who left her
Fish out the lady in the lake
