I've been so afraid To see your changing face To know if you still love me the same 'Cause all I've got is what you built us I became the things you taught us And when I'm lost It's all I've got It's time to take my own advice And go back to the Lakeside Where I can see myself in your eyes As I am Take me back to my home again Friend I remember you said If you ever forget who you are Meet me at the Lakeside I'm sorry I ran out I couldn't bear to drag my feet downtown But I'm ready now to be my mother's child Will you meet me on the corner? And we'll dance out on the water Like we did When we were kids It's time to take my own advice And go back to the Lakeside Where I can see myself in your eyes As I am Take me back to my home again Friend I remember you said If you ever forget who you are Child I'm always on your side Watching as the world is getting so wild Remember what I told you at Lakeside Child Don't let them drown you out Even as the world is getting so loud If you ever forget who you are Meet me at the Lakeside Lakeside
