Man Made Lake Lyrics[Verse 1]
I can open up this engine in any direction
I can never get away from shore
You can never lose sight of me even if I might be
Takin' on water on a man made lake

[Verse 2]
I used to lie in bed and still feel the motion
Only a stone's throw away
When I was a kid, I
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm, I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
[Chorus]
All of the trees beside it
Every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided
Where it all should go
When I was a kid, I
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm, I'm takin' on water on a man made lake

[Verse 3]
I am just a boy I know, frozen in a picture
What was that smile I made?
I was on a need-to-know basis
And I didn't need to know that
I didn't even know it was a man made lake
I remember you so clearly
Drivin' home from a party
People never said shit those days
I'm laying in the backseat starin'
At the headlights glarin'
Movin' the opposite way
And I feel completely safe

[Chorus]
All of the trees beside it
Every rock inside it
Somebody's dad decided
Where it all should go
When I was a kid, I
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm, I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
I'm takin' on water (I'm takin' on water)
I'm takin' on water (I'm takin' on water)
(I'm takin' on water)
When I was a kid, I
I thought it was the ocean
Now I'm, I'm takin' on water on a man made lake
