It's all about the lake, you see,
The emerald waters to explore
That line of white against those trees
That marks the further shore

To the gentle splash of the paddle blade
The silence sings and worries fade
Beneath the deep blue dome of sky
Just the lake, my kayak and I

Behind, beyond, and all around,
The mountains rear, a frame of stone
That keeps the outside world away
And holds the lake for me alone

To the gentle splash of the paddle blade
The silence sings and worries fade
Beneath the deep blue dome of sky
Just the lake, my kayak and I

How quietly they drop away
Those cares I brought from yesterday
The shining ripples telling me
On the water here, you're free

To the gentle splash of the paddle blade
The silence sings and worries fade
Beneath the deep blue dome of sky
Just the lake, my kayak and I

Just the lake, my kayak and I
