[VERSE 1]
D#/G G# D/F# G
Lake Hope was calling me
G# A# D#/G G
October witnesses were there
D#/G G# D/F# G
So-o I took her with me
G# A# D#/G G
I knew just what would occur there
G# A# D#/G
That's why I had to take her there
G# A# G Cm
So I called on our Michael, it was so far
G# A# D#/G G
And he was willing to drive us
G# A#
Gathered up her paintbrushes
G Cm
Ran to the car
G# A# D#/G G
But for the squirrels it was quiet
[VERSE 2]
D#/G G# D/F# G
Lake Hope rea-a-lity
G# A# D#/G G
Seems so ethereal floating
D#/G G# D/F# G
And the fina-a-lity
G# A#
Of her embrace
D#/G G
Left me groping
G# A# D#/G
Satisfied yes, but still groping
G# A# G Cm
For the secret of metaphysical joy
G# A# D#/G G
There in her body's caresses
G# A#
Love is but to play with
G Cm
G girl like a toy
G# A# D#/G G
Yes, but nobody confesses
[VERSE 3]
D#/G G# D/F# G
Lake Hope was calling me
G# A# D#/G G
I knew just what would occur there
D#/G G# D/F# G
So-o I took her with me
G# A# D#/G G
Only to do it with her there
G# A# D#/G
That's why I couldn't take you there…
