Over by the lakeside How the enemies pass They claim we pass the hours All I do is look at the last line Is your heart made of lime or stone All it takes is love's ignition The car knows where it takes Boats and boats will soon show us Red sails aren't all crayfish dread Like I found you embarrassed at fools And embarrassed by wise men too Slow down you tool Will we fly into a honey trap Or spread our light among the mallards Cygnets are scared of waves Let us take them Over by the lakeside Where the enemies pass Soon the velleity of kindest folk Will triumph over blind faith Over by the lakeside The lake is opaque on a transparent night Where you can see the milky way In the distant cosmic shores If you stare deep into the lake You might turn to water As your flesh finds its virtue And the soul is out of strife As it is stirred with spirituality and life
