LYRICS: {The lyrics are only softly said at the beginning. One line is said slowly whenever an E note is played on the Intro Riff.} I stood at the lake I watched the tide Waiting for you to wash up We used to play At this lake One day the boat tipped Deeper and deeper you fell Down in the water I'll try to get some of our better non-acoustic songs on ehre a bit later.
