Used to go skinny dipping   Trapping love in a lake   Wading slowly   Gripping sun with a rake   Now the pool in your heart is frozen   And I never did learn how to skate      But it doesn't matter anyway   I'm on the wrong side of the water   Oh, won't you listen to the lady in the lake      We drifted swiftly   Paper sails in the breakers   We buried treasure   There was nothing to take   And the pool in your mouth is frozen   And I never did learn how to skate      But it doesn't matter anyway   I'm on the wrong side of the water   Oh, won't you listen to the lady in the lake      No, it doesn't matter anyway   I'm on the wrong side of the water   She's frozen love, as you left her      Out of who's womb came the ice   And the hoary frost of heaven   Who hath gendered it   The waters are hid as with a stone   And the face of the deep is frozen      No, it doesn't matter anyway   I'm on the wrong side of the water   Oh, won't you listen to the lady in the lake      No, it doesn't matter anyway   I'm on the wrong side of the water   She's frozen love as you left her   Fish out the lady in the lake
