Artist/Band: Kate Bush
Lyrics for Song: Lake Tahoe
Lyrics for Album: 50 Words For Snow [2011]



Lake Tahoe

Cold mountain water

Don't ever swim there

Just stand on the edge and look in there

And you might see a woman down there

They say some days, up she comes, up she rises, as if out of nowhere

Wearing Victorian dress.

She was calling her pet: "Snowflake! Snowflake!"

Tumbling like a cloud that has drowned in the lake

Just like a poor, porcelain doll...

Her eyes are open but no one's home



The clock has stopped

So long she's gone

No one's home

Her old dog is sleeping

His legs are frail now

But when he dreams,

He runs...

Along long beaches and sticky fields

Through the Spooky Wood looking for her.

The beds are made. The table is laid.

The door is open, someone is calling - it's a woman:

"Here boy, here boy! You've come home!

I've got an old bone and a biscuit and so much love

Miss me? Did you miss me?

Here's the kitchen - there's your basket

Here's the hall - that's where you wait for me

Here's the bedroom - you're not allowed in there

Here's my lap - that's where you rest your head

Here boy, oh you're a good boy

You've come home

You've come home"
