Girl by the Lake Lyrics

Album: Vitriol

Beautiful girl she was

promised to marry

a noble rich man

she didn't love

Every day she went to

the shore by the lake just

to cry the injustice

of a life without a way out

One day she hanged out

a little bit more and

she fell into the cold water

but someone came

The young fisherman

saved the girl in a while

always he came there

to glance her reflection

Then into my eyes

like a dream you appeared

and all the breaths I'll take

they will be for you my love

This terrible destiny

will be revenged

by a stormy violent wind

It will keep alive

the tragic sacrifice

and will be told the story

about the girl by the lake

and his murdered love

Father discovered

the secret lovers

and closed his daughter

into the tower alone

The cruel man then

threw the fisherman

into a deep cave hidden into

a dark wood

Before the wedding

Father moved to pity

allowed the lady

to cry the last time

by the lake

She heard him screaming

her beloved was killed

she said a prayer

while the water covered her face

This terrible destiny

will be revenged

by a stormy violent wind

It will keep alive

the tragic sacrifice

and will be told the story

about the girl by the lake

and his murdered love

Goodbye my dear island

mother of my childish days

Goodbye my lake

I leave to hold him
