This Old Lake

PrintE-mail


Wind's blowin' everyone's sleepin' everything's just as it should be

And I've been thinkin' 'bout you and me missin' this great opportunity


'Cause you're not seein' what I'm hopin' am I gettin' carried away

And the water's lappin' the sun's risin' on another single day

 

CH But I'm not lonely I'm just waitin' by myself

For you to open up your eyes

And this old lake and I go back so many years

No matter what I tell her she just sighs

 

 

I've been walkin' around dreamin' you and I could make a pair

But I'm foolin' myself believin' you could ever really care

'Cause you're hidin' your feelin's laughin' at my heart sat on my sleeve

And the rain's drippin' the water's lappin' and dawn is bringin' my reprieve

 

CH

 

INSTR

 

Now I'm sittin here wonderin' what is a man supposed to do

No use cryin' likewise denying this honest lovin' meant for you

But the wind's blowin' everyone's sleepin' everything's just as it should be

And I've been thinkin' about you and me missin' this great opportunity

 

CH
