Canyon LakeA picture of a smiling face on an old refrigerator In a house by the water, where nobody lives anymore I guess we've had all our wild times Now what's yours is yours and what's mine is mine Our bitter end became empty bottles in the grass Looks like you packed up your stuff and moved on I knocked on the door but I knew no one was home So I'm a voyeur looking into my past Chorus: I'm staring through a kitchen window Into a place we used to be Now it seems like a horrible mistake That everything we once held dear Was found and lost right over here In this little house at Canyon Lake We tried to keep our life simple, but love can be complicated When one person's need for space makes the other frustrated Sometimes when you hold on too tight What once felt like love starts to feel like might And insecurity grows like a big black cloud Before long the need for resolution Is more important than finding a solution All in the name of avoiding fear and doubt Chorus: I'm staring through a kitchen window Into a place we used to be Now it seems like a horrible mistake That everything we once held dear Was found and lost right over here In this little house at Canyon Lake Bridge: The water in this lake has always been choppy When I started to sink why didn't you stop me All I needed was a soft and gentle hand But you sat on the shore like some old boulder While I went under and got colder and colder I sure miss the feel of dry land Chorus: I'm staring through a kitchen window Into a place we used to be Now it seems like a horrible mistake That everything we once held dear Was found and lost right over here In this little house at Canyon Lake Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
