about

A harmless looking bay with glassy, still water near my old home in Ottawa. Many have drowned there being fooled by it's loveliness and the fact that there was no warning posted.

lyrics

Lazy Bay on a sunny day
The water still and dark
Lovely as a lady
She can break your heart
She can break your heart

A story sad yet untold
Untold but remembered
Remembered by She
By She who returned never

How chooses She Her company
Her company She keeps
She keeps and suffers sadly
Sadly her own grief

There's no sign of the fault
The fault that lies beneath
Lies beneath her mirror
Her mirror dark and deep

Lazy Bay on a sunny day
The water still and dark
Lovely as a lady
She can break your heart
She can break your heart

Who took me for a challenge
A challenge I am not
Am not I better left alone
Left alone unsought

These waters flow like time to me
To me they come then go
Then go less wildly than they came
They came though not alone

Time and soothing sorrow
Sorrow and for me
For me what then
What then I cannot see

Lazy Bay on a sunny day
The water still and dark
Lovely as a lady
She can break your heart
She can break your heart

Who took me for their pleasure
Their pleasure them decieved
Decieved them unto their doom
Their doom I did not weave

Remember them beyond
Them beyond all harm
All harm from the hands of men
Of men who failed to warn

Take this then a warning
A warning to convey
To convey Her doom
Her doom is there to stay

Lazy Bay on a sunny day
The water still and dark
Lovely as a lady
She can break your heart
She can break your heart
