Lake Tahoe
ย
Cold mountain water
ย
Don't ever swim there
Just stand on the edge and look in there
And you might see a woman down there
ย
They say some days up she comes
Up she rises as if out of nowhere
ย
Wearing Victorian dress
ย
She was calling her pet
ย
"Snowflake, Snowflake"
ย
Tumbling like a cloud that has drowned in the lake
Just like a poor, porcelain doll
ย
Her eyes are open but no one's home
ย
The clock has stopped
So long she's gone
ย
No one's home
ย
Her old dog is sleeping
His legs are frail now
But when he dreams
ย
He runs
ย
Along long beaches and sticky fields
Through the Spooky Wood looking for her
ย
The beds are made, the table is laid
The door is open, someone is calling
ย
It's a woman
ย
"Here boy, here boy
ย
You've come home
ย
I've got an old bone and a biscuit and so much love
ย
Miss me, did you miss me?"
ย
Here's the kitchen, there's your basket
ย
Here's the hall, that's where you wait for me
ย
Here's the bedroom, you're not allowed in there
ย
Here's my lap, that's where you rest your head
ย
Here boy, oh you're a good boy
ย
You've come home
ย
You've come home
ย
You've come home
ย
