Lake Tahoe (2018 Remaster)

[Verse 1: Stefan Roberts & Michael Wood]

Lake Tahoe

Cold mountain water

Don't ever swim there

Just stand on the edge and look in there

[Verse 2: Kate Bush]

And you might see a woman down there

They say some days, up she comes, up she rises

As if out of nowhere

[Verse 3: Stefan Roberts & Michael Wood, Kate Bush]

Wearing Victorian dress

She was calling her pet

"Snowflake, Snowflake"

Tumbling like a cloud that has drowned in the lake

[Verse 4: Kate Bush]

Just like a poor, porcelain doll

Her eyes are open but no one's home

The clock has stopped

So long, she's gone

[Verse 5: Kate Bush]

No one's home

Her old dog is sleeping

His legs are frail now

But when he dreams

He runs

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 6: Kate Bush]

Along long beaches

And sticky fields

Through the Spooky Wood

Looking for her

[Verse 7: Stefan Roberts & Michael Wood]

Oh, the beds are made

The table is laid

The door is open

Someone is calling

[Verse 8: Kate Bush]

It's a woman

"Here, boy, here, boy, you've come home

I've got an old bone and a biscuit and so much love

Miss me? Did you miss me?"

[Verse 9: Kate Bush]

"Here's the kitchen, there's your basket

Here's the hall, that's where you wait for me

Here's the bedroom, you're not allowed in there

Here's my lap, that's where you rest your head"

[Verse 10: Kate Bush]

"Here, boy, oh, you're a good boy

You've come home

You've come home

You've come home"
