Lake Tahoe (2018 Remaster)

Lake Tahoe
Cold mountain water
Don't ever swim there
Just stand on the edge and look in there
Instrumental

And you might see a woman down there
They say some days, up she comes
Up she rises, as if out of nowhere
Instrumental

Wearing Victorian dress
She was calling her pet, "Snowflake! Snowflake!"
Tumbling like a cloud that has drowned in the lake
Instrumental

Just like a poor, porcelain doll
Instrumental
Her eyes are open but no-one's home
Instrumental

The clock has stopped
So long she's gone
No-one's home
Her old dog is sleeping
His legs are frail now
But when he dreams
He runs
Instrumental

Along long beaches and sticky fields
Through the spooky wood looking for her
Instrumental

The beds are made
The table is laid
The door is open - someone is calling: It's a woman
Here boy, here boy!
You've come home!
I've got an old bone and a biscuit and so much love
Miss me? Did you miss me?
Here's the kitchen
There's your basket
Here's the hall
That's where you wait for me
Here's the bedroom
You're not allowed in there
Here's my lap
That's where you lay your head
Here boy, oh you're a good boy
You've come home
You've come home, you've come home
