Lady of the Lake
[Chorus 1]
When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake
And I was her favorite child
She wore a white gown, her yellow hair hanging down
And her voice, like a shadow, was gentle and kind
[Verse 1]
Every day to the sea, we would go hand-in-hand
And build great white castles, civilizations in sand
And I would paint her pictures with a seaweed brush
And gather seashell jewels for her as stars watched over us
[Chorus 1]
When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake
And I was her favorite child
She wore a white gown, her yellow hair hanging down
And her voice, like a shadow, was gentle and kind
[Chorus 2]
Sometimes, we'd set sail straight for the sun
As down the dome of sky, it fled
And sometimes, we'd try to catch it as it spun
To the deep sea comfort of its sea-green bed
[Bridge]
The lady of the lake is gone, lost with childhood's mind
But the intoxication lingers on and I remember the time
When I would paint her pictures with a seaweed brush
And gather seashell jewels for her as stars watched over us
[Outro]
When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake
(When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake)
And I was her favorite child (And I was her favorite child)
When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake
(When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake)
And I was her favorite child (And I was her favorite child)
When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake
(When I was a boy, I knew the lady of the lake)
And I was her favorite child
