Lady of the Lake Lyrics by Rainbow

Long Live Rock ‘n’ Roll

1978

[Verse 1]
There's a magical sound slidin' over the ground
Makin' it shiver and shake
And a permanent cry fallin' out of the sky
Slippery and sly like a snake
With a delicate move kind of shifty and smooth
A shadow has covered the light
Then a beam in the shade from a silvery blade
It shattered the edge of the night
[Chorus]
I know she waits below
Only to rise on command
When she comes for me
She's got my life in her hands
[Verse 2]
When a movement behind hit the side of my mind
I trembled and shook it away
Then another assault and I started to faulter
Fibres of steel turned to clay
With a bubbly turn now the water should churn
And push it way from the core
And a lady in white will bring sun to the night
Brighter than ever before
[Chorus]
I know she waits below
Only to rise on command
When she comes for me
She's got my life in her hands
Lady of the lake
[Verse 3]
There's a magical sound slidin' over the ground
Makin' it shiver and shake
And a permanent cry fallin' out of the sky
Slippery and sly like a snake
With a delicate move kind of shifty and smooth
A shadow has covered the light
Then a beam in the shade from a silvery blade
Has shattered the edge of the night
[Chorus]
Straight down I'm swirling around
Blinded and bruised by the strain
There must be some way to see
Diamonds out of the rain
[Outro]
I know she waits below
Only to rise on command
When she comes for me
She's got my life in her hands
Lady of the lake
