The Laughing Lake 1 |
| Throw a stone across the ice |
| Upon the laughing lake |
| We city kids sure know our stuff |
| We’re out here on the make |
| The colour of the winter sky |
| Reflects the coldness of the ground |
| The leather of our shoes is thin |
| It lets us know we’ve been around |
| Throw a stone across the ice |
| And hear the laughing lake |
| We should have worm our furry coats |
| Our ears begin to ache |
| No empty cans among the trees |
| No motor-cars or sudden sounds |
| Just wayward crows in wintertime |
| They cross the hills between the town |
| The pebble spins across the ice |
| Farther than the eye can see |
| The laughter echoes from the air |
| And darkness gathers silently |
| Throw a stone across the ice |
| And watch the laughing lake |
| When springtime sunshine warms the air |
| The frozen water breaks |
| Our sinking stone will make its way |
| To join the other stones below |
| While you and I will take our place |
| In stony cities' undertow |
