Man Made Lake Songtext
von Donovan Woods

I can open up this engine in any direction
I can never get away from the shore
And you can never lose sight of me
Even if I might be
Taking on water
On a man made lake

I used to lie in bed and still feel the motion
Only a stone′s throw away
And when I was a kid I...
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm taking on water
On a man made lake


All of the trees beside it
Every rock inside it
Somebody′s dad decided
Where they should go
And when I was a kid I...
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm taking on water
On a man made lake

I am just a boy, I know
Frozen in a picture
What was that smile I made?
I was on a need-to-know basis
And I didn't need to know that
I didn′t even know it was a man made lake

I remember you so clearly
Driving home from parties
People never said shit in those days
I′m laying in the back seat staring
At the headlights glaring
Moving the opposite way
I am completely safe

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey


All of the trees beside it
Every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided
Where they should go
And when I was a kid I...
I thought it was the ocean
Now I′m taking on water
On a man made lake
