Frozen Lake

AlphabetLyrics.com


Sometimes I recall the motion
Of a hand waving good-bye
I try so hard to find the feeling
That still lingers on inside.

But every single morning I'm running
With the past
Every door that opens
I can't help looking back
At the pieces that are gone
At the one I could become
If I tried hard and still
If it be your will
I would be the one you need.

I ran out onto the frozen lake
Not knowing how easy it could break
I gave them all quite a scare
Sometimes I wish I could get back
To all of those things
So simple and pure
I'm not sure it can be that anymore.

I wonder when we became strangers
It's like you slipped out of my hands
You tried to hold on for some reason
It took me long to understand.

I ran out onto the frozen lake
Not knowing how easy it could break
I gave them all quite a scare
Sometimes I wish I could get back
To all of those things
So simple and pure
I'm not sure it can be that anymore.

For every single morning I'm running
With the past
Every door that opens
I can't help looking back
At the pieces that are gone
At the one I could become
If I tried hard and still
If it be your will
I would be the one you need.
