Thieves by the LakeCanyon Lake Cody's house We went there some We don't go there now That was then Times have changed The wounds have healed But the scars remain Summer nights On the porch In the darkness We lit quite a torch Talked all night In the yard The sun came up Made things much too hard Chorus: We were thieves by the lake I've done my time but my heart still aches Either way we went Would've been a mistake When we were thieves by the lake I was hers You were his We risked it all For a stolen kiss All our friends Sound asleep While we borrowed Things we couldn't keep No one saw No one knew It's one to take To the grave with you Standing up Laying down Love goes awry When lovers are bound Bridge: We're older now Ain't life grand You're a wife and a mother I'm a family man I cleaned up my act So I'd get parole But one dangerous night A long, long time ago... Chorus: We were thieves by the lake I've done my time but my heart still aches Either way we went Would've been a mistake When we were thieves by the lake Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
