Man Made Lake Songtext
I can open up this engine in any direction
I can never get away from shore
You can never lose sight of me even if I might be
Takin' on water on a man made lake
I used to lie in bed and still feel the motion
Only a stone's throw away
When I was a kid
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
All of the trees beside it, every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided where it all should go
When I was a kid
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' 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, drivin' home from a party
People never said shit those days
I'm laying in the backseat starin' at the headlights glarin'
Movin' the opposite way
I feel completely safe
All of the trees beside it, every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided where it all should go When I was a kid I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I'm taking on water, I'm taking on water
When I was a kid I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I can never get away from shore
You can never lose sight of me even if I might be
Takin' on water on a man made lake
I used to lie in bed and still feel the motion
Only a stone's throw away
When I was a kid
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
All of the trees beside it, every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided where it all should go
When I was a kid
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' 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, drivin' home from a party
People never said shit those days
I'm laying in the backseat starin' at the headlights glarin'
Movin' the opposite way
I feel completely safe
All of the trees beside it, every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided where it all should go When I was a kid I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I'm taking on water, I'm taking on water
When I was a kid I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
