The Lake - Aqualung

This house is full of secrets

This house smells of ghosts

Dreams that never woke

Dreams that never woke

Nightmares never spoke aloud

Outside the water’s black

This one won’t throw back

A lifetime is too long

A lifetime is too long

Let’s say no more about it

Listen to me

I can only say this once

Are you listening

See these empty hands

Knowing it was all for you

But I’ll see you again

Down by the lake

Sleeping beauty stares

The whole world could be hers

But after all these years

After all these years

I’ll say no more about it

Listen to me

I can only say this once

Are you listening

See these empty hands

Knowing it was all for you

Til I see you again

Yes, I’ll see you again

When I see you again

Down by the lake

This house smells of ghosts
