[Verse 1]
On the shore of the lake, an old man sat
And watched a woman bathing
With its golden touch, the light was such
That the moment was worth saving
[Chorus]
And he sang the song of the lake
The song of the lake
And all the king's horses and all—
Ah, never mind, never mind
[Verse 2]
And he knew that he would dissolve
If he followed her into the lake
But he also knew that if he remained upon the shore
He would, in time, evaporate
[Chorus]
He sang the song of the lake
The song of the lake
And all the king’s horses—
Ah, never mind, never mind
[Verse 3]
And he knew that even though he had found Heaven
Such as described in the ancient scrolls
Still, he felt the drag of Hell
Upon his old and mortal soul
On the shore of the lake, an old man sat
And watched a woman bathing
With its golden touch, the light was such
That the moment was worth saving
[Chorus]
And he sang the song of the lake
The song of the lake
And all the king's horses and all—
Ah, never mind, never mind
[Verse 2]
And he knew that he would dissolve
If he followed her into the lake
But he also knew that if he remained upon the shore
He would, in time, evaporate
[Chorus]
He sang the song of the lake
The song of the lake
And all the king’s horses—
Ah, never mind, never mind
[Verse 3]
And he knew that even though he had found Heaven
Such as described in the ancient scrolls
Still, he felt the drag of Hell
Upon his old and mortal soul
