We were standing | |
Standing by peaceful waters | |
Standing by peaceful waters | |
Whoa, wah, oh wha, oh | |
Whoa, wah, oh wha, oh | |
Many years ago along the | |
Illinois-Wisconsin border | |
There was this | |
Indian tribe | |
They found two babies in the woods | |
White babies | |
One of them was named | |
ElizabethShe was the fairer of the two | |
While the smaller and more fragile one was named | |
MarieHaving never seen white girls before | |
And living on the two lakes known as the | |
Twin Lakes | |
They named the larger and more beautiful lake, | |
Lake Elizabeth | |
And thus the smaller lake that was hidden from the highway | |
Became known forever as | |
Lake Marie | |
We were standing | |
Standing by peaceful waters | |
Standing by peaceful waters | |
Whoa, wah, oh wha, oh | |
Whoa, wah, oh wha, oh | |
Many years later | |
I found myself talking to this girl | |
Who was standing there with her back turned to | |
Lake Marie | |
The wind was blowing especially through her hair | |
There was four | |
Italian sausages cooking on the outdoor grill | |
And man, they was sizzlin' | |
Many years later we found ourselves in | |
CanadaTrying to save our marriage and perhaps catch a few fish | |
Whatever seemed easier, that night she fell asleep in my arms | |
Humming the tune to, "Louie Louie" | |
Aah baby, we gotta go now | |
We were standing | |
Standing by peaceful waters | |
Standing by peaceful waters | |
Whoa, wah, oh wha, oh | |
Whoa, wah, oh wha, oh | |
The dogs were barking as the cars were parking | |
The loan sharks were sharking, the narcs were narcing | |
Practically everyone was there | |
In the parking lot by the forest preserve | |
The police had found two bodies in the woods | |
Nay, naked bodies | |
Their faces had been horribly disfigured by some sharp object | |
Saw it on the news, on the | |
TV news, in a black and white video | |
You know what blood looks like in a black and white video? | |
Shadows, shadows, that's exactly what it looks like | |
All the love we shared between her and me was slammed | |
Slammed up against the banks of | |
Old Lake Marie, | |
MarieWe were standing | |
