Laurie Anderson — The Lake

I walk accompanied by ghosts I walk accompanied by ghosts My father with his diamond eyes His voice life size He says follow me. Follow me And I come sliding where I've been hiding Out of the heart of a child Meet me by the lake. Meet me by the lake I'll be there. I'll be there If only I had the time. To tell you how I climbed Out of the darkness. Out of my mind And I come sliding where I've been hiding Out of the heart of a child Sunrise comes across the mountains Sunrise comes across the day Sunsets sit across the lakeside Sunsets across the Pyrenees Out of the heart of a child Out of the heart of a child Out of the heart of a child Meet me by the lake. Meet me by the lake I walk accompanied by ghosts
