"The Lakes" lyrics

"The Lakes"

I know a place
Surrounded by trees
When you reach the lake
And get down on your knees
And you stare at the water, tell me what do you see?
On the surface it's you, but under it's me

You said that you loved me
And we danced once or twice
But the world can be cruel
More often than nice
Ignored all the warnings
Didn't take their advice
Now I watch from the bottom
Through a window of ice

Over and over
Forever in clover
Over and over
Too young to ever grow older

I'm following trails
I've never seen here before
There's a cold patch of wind
And red on the dirt floor
You told me you'd be here
What good did that do?
I'm chasing a ghost
The ghost of me and you

Over and over
Forever in clover
Over and over
Too young to ever grow older

Swallow it up
Before it's too late
The moon shows its teeth
Over the lake
We've written our names
With blood on our hands
Let's leave it to fate
Let's leave it to chance

Over and over
Forever in clover
Over and over
Too young to ever grow older

Over and over
Forever in clover
Over and over
Too young to ever grow older
