Where the Lake Meets the Sky

Where The Lake Meets The Sky

If I had the wings of an eagle
I'd stretch them out wide and I'd fly
Far over the rivers and meadows
To the place where the lake meets the sky

To the place where the lake meets the sky
To the place where the lake meets the sky
Where the endless waves flash in the sunlight
And the wind over water does sigh

My earliest memories are golden
As a dandelion field in July
A childhood of laughter and daydreams
Of the place where the lake meets the sky

Of the place where the lake meets the sky
Of the place where the lake meets the sky
Where the endless waves flash in the sunlight
And the wind over water does sigh

But life can be fickle and cruel
And I had to say my goodbye
To my childhood home close to the water
And the place where the lake meets the sky

And the place where the lake meets the sky
And the place where the lake meets the sky
Where the endless waves flash in the sunlight
And the wind over water does sigh

So wide is the distance between us
And so long the years passing by
Yet ever I dream of returning
To the place where the lake meets the sky

To the place where the lake meets the sky
To the place where the lake meets the sky
Where the endless waves flash in the sunlight
And the wind over water does sigh

I'll live out my days near the water
Be buried there after I die
For I know the closest to heaven
Is the place where the lake meets the sky

Is the place where the lake meets the sky
Is the place where the lake meets the sky
Where the endless waves flash in the sunlight
And the wind over water does sigh
