The Girl By The Lake Lyrics

The picture I have is you standing in front of a lake
There’s sun on your face and you’re smiling a way
That really gives nothing away

Just judging by the shadows, it’s noon or maybe one or
two
You’ve got the rest of the day and your whole life to
play
And the world is waiting on you

But I really just can’t remember the night that you went
away
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?

To live is to fly and I’m learning to try
But sometimes it’s all such a chore
If the breeze doesn’t come and clouds block the sun
You’ve got to work harder to soar

We’re all here just a dancing like we know what we are trying to do
But the fact is you can’t so you dance and you dance
Keep on moving till the music is through

There’s nothing that says that you have to, no rules
that say you must
And what may seem unfair is just fates way of daring
Us all to learn how to trust

It’s sun on a butterfly’s wings stretching them out to
dry
And a breeze to help with the chore
But if the breeze doesn’t come and clouds block the sun
You’ve got to work harder to soar.

Well the picture I have is you standing in front of a
lake
And you smiling a way that gives nothing away
Did I ever know this girl by the lake?
Did I even know the girl by the lake?
