Down by the Lake Songtext
von Anita Lipnicka & John Porter

Down by the lake where you used to sit
In the morning sun, spreading gold around
I can see you still, waving back to me, praising the day

Looking at you, oh who would have guessed
You were turning then the final page of your book of life
There was no warning sign, not the slightest alert

Did you see enough of all that you wanted to see?
Did you feel loved as much as you needed to be?
Would you change at all any line in that story of yours?

I stare at the view in the window frame
Seasons come and go, sun trips high and low
There′s no break for a sigh, for a tear to dry, the clock doesn't wait


Oh I wish I was strong just enough to find
Everything I miss about you and me
But the road of despair, just leads me there, down by the lake

Did you see enough of all that you wanted to see?
Did you feel loved as much as you needed to be?
Would you change at all any line in that story of yours?
I′ll never know

Did you see enough of all that you wanted to see? (did you see)
Did you feel loved as much as you needed to be? (did you feel)
Would you change at all any line in that story of yours? (would you change)

Down by the lake where you used to sit
In the morning sun, spreading gold around
I can see you still, waving back to me, praising the day
