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