Max Stalling - 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 bu*terfly'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?
