For You, I've a Lake

Lyrics Gilles Vigneault
Music Gilles Vigneault
Performer Michelle Campagne

For you, I’ve a lake
Of beautiful blue
Somewhere, all your own
With one open eye, in the dead of night
A shivering stone
Who’ll shake like a leaf
When your name’s whispered around
When the fall’s gentle breeze
Sighs a wintersound
Reflections of time
Gathered and lost
My days rightside up
My nights upside-down
For you I’ve adventure
In a faraway land
On sand dunes of blue
A million small steps
Towards who knows where
All silent and true
The soft touch of wind
Towards seasons all
Have drawn on our brows
Waves of days and nightfall
And then we would be
As time slips away
Ferrycrossings at dawn
Happy castaways
I’ve for you undone
And then I’ve rebuilt
Castles of yore
From a loving cloud
Who for my young prince
Will sail as before
Let me be a tree
Let me be a crown
Let me be a basket
Of fruit abound
And I will be there
Towards you I’ll run
To give you the earth
The moon and the sun
For you, simply love
Somewhere in this land
Never let it go…Take my hand
