There's a magical sound slidin' over the ground   Makin' it shiver and shake   And a permanent cry fallin' out of the sky   Slippery and sly like a snake      With a delicate move kind of shifty and smooth   A shadow has covered the light   Then a beam in the shade from a silvery blade   Has shattered the edge of the night      I know she waits below   Only to rise on command   When she comes for me   She's got my life in her hands      When a movement behind hit the side of my mind   I trembled and shook it away   Then another assault and I started to faulter   Fibres of steel turned to clay      With a bubbly turn now the water should churn   And push it way from the core   And a lady in white will bring sun to the night   Brighter than ever before      I know she waits below   Only to rise on command   When she comes for me   She's got my life in her hands   Lady of the lake      There's a magical sound slidin' over the ground   Makin' it shiver and shake   And a permanent cry fallin' out of the sky   Slippery and sly like a snake      With a delicate move kind of shifty and smooth   A shadow has covered the light   Then a beam in the shade from a slivery blade   Has shattered the edge of the night      Straight down I'm swirling around   Blinded and bruised by the strain   There must be some way to see   Diamonds out of the rain      I know she waits below   Only to rise on command   When she comes for me   She's got my life in her hands   Lady of the lake
