Lyrics
My loneliness grew brazen, and dove headlong in a lake of affection/ Hoping to find a safe haven, to warm herself and ward off further rejection/ But she didn't know how soon it grows cold, there outside in the wind, exposed again/ The depths drew her down, they encircled and covered her naked form/ while the surface just rippled around, its wrinkled face looking distressed and forlorn/ Comfort contained her awhile, while the water washed and soothed her skin/ But its affection can betray and beguile, as easily as it had coaxed her in/ But she didn't know how soon it grows cold, there outside in the wind, exposed again/ Soon the lake released its tight grasp, now weary of doting on this naked girl/ so my loneliness surfaced and gasped, forced to flee her underwater world/ If only she'd known how soon it grows cold, she wouldn't be out there in the wind, in full exposure again/ If only she'd know how soon it grows cold, she wouldn't be out there in the wind, pulling her clothes on again.
