The Lake Lyrics


You held his head in your hands
And looked at me with your cold eyes
'This is the place where it ends'
And talked me into break iceI lost all things that I loved
One million things I still loveCold water taste like metal
Knifes will get under your skin
Light shimmers in your white cloth
One of two sisters must winOne day you'll hear what I say
Run from me day by each daySmall push and then he was gone
Under a layer of cold skin
'This is the way that it's done'
The fear was shown in your grinI lost all things that I loved
One million things I still loveBut I will turn the clock back today
The lake is deep and dark, there's a way
To (let you) follow his sunken heartI took the boy that you loved
All of the things I still love
One of us sisters were shy
Last girl you see when you dieThe boy that I love

The things that I still love

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
