Lyrics

This house is full of secrets
This house smells of ghosts
Dreams that never woke
Dreams that never woke
Nightmares never spoke of

Outside the water's black
This one we won't throw back
A lifetime is too long
A lifetime is too long
Let's say no more about it

Listen to me
I can only say this once
Are you listening?
See these empty hands
Know that it was all for you
Til see you again
Down by the lake

Sleeping beauty stirs
The whole world could be hers
But after all these years
After all these years
I'll say no more about it

Listen to me
I can only say this once
Are you listening?
See these empty hands
Know that it was all for you
Til I see you again.
Yes, I'll see you again.
When I see you again
Down by the lake.

This house smells of ghosts
