Kate Bush - Lake Tahoe lyrics
[Kate Bush - Lake Tahoe lyrics]
Lake Tahoe cold mountain water
Don't ever swim there
Just stand on the edge and look in there
And you might see a woman down there
They say some days, up she comes
Up she rises as if out of nowhere
Wearing Victorian dress
She was calling her pet
"Snowflake! Snowflake!"
Tumbling like a cloud that has
Drowned in the lake
Just like a poor, porcelain doll
Her eyes are open but no-one's home
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
Along long beaches and sticky fields
Through the Spooky Wood looking for her
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 rest your head
"Here boy, oh, you're a good boy
You've come home you've come home
You've come home"
Don't ever swim there
Just stand on the edge and look in there
And you might see a woman down there
They say some days, up she comes
Up she rises as if out of nowhere
Wearing Victorian dress
She was calling her pet
"Snowflake! Snowflake!"
Tumbling like a cloud that has
Drowned in the lake
Just like a poor, porcelain doll
Her eyes are open but no-one's home
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
Along long beaches and sticky fields
Through the Spooky Wood looking for her
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 rest your head
"Here boy, oh, you're a good boy
You've come home you've come home
You've come home"
