Description
This song is about a woman and a man that lost their son to the Lake and also about others that has been unfortune to share their sadness. It is still a work in prgress but I would like some opinions before taking it to the next level...
This is my first song using my new slide (type) guitar as well as some other things...
Thanks,
M

Lyrics
[ lost ]
down by the lake, a man and his book
some children are playing in the sand
down by the lake where a young boy died
down by the lake and the beautiful sky
down by the lake, a woman nearby
she looks at the man but she doesn't know why
he doesn't look back, he is reading his book
she moves a bit closer, she starts to talk:
come with me, walk with me through the park
come with me, we don't even have to talk
lost by the lake
people get lost by the lake
they walk through the park, none talks
they walk until they don't walk anymore
they stop at a house, a broken down door
they step inside to look around
the man is weeping, the woman is too
the whole lake is weeping and no wonder why
it's filled with tears and has been filled for years
down by the lake is where people die
come with me, sit down by my side
come with me, we're never gonna die

alley-oop
Actually, this a very pretty and sad song. The guitars are real cool. I like the guitars alot. The chorus is really good. Your song production is excellent. The composition is very well contructed.
I've noticed a death theme in many of your songs. Don't go to the mountains or the woods and now,
'icks-snay on the ake-lay'
That's what in Amercia we call pig latin for ' the lake is off limits'. Do they use the buddy-system for swimming in your country?
I really like the line:
come with me, we don't even have to talk
it's pretty, it gets me. A lot of your work gets me.
Thanks for posting another facinating song.
