case oats - bitter root lake lyrics

Loading...

[verse]

fell in love in ’83
your hair was long and blonde;
your daddy didn’t like me
he said i tried to do you wrong

and though you barely knew me
we got the grand idea;
you shook my hand and said, baby
you got yourself a deal

[chorus]

diane, diane
i tried to stay with a plan…
diane, diane
i’m saying that i’m still your man

and i’m hoping you’ll wait
at the bottom
of bitter root lake

[verse]

said i’d steal a plane, dear
and fill the tank with gas;
i knew the way to mexico
and you didn’t think to ask
the plan was d+mn+near foolproof
just follow the birds in flight;
find some smooth still water
and climb on down from the sky

[chorus]

diane, diane
i tried to stay with a plan…
diane, diane
i’m saying that i’m still your man

and i’m hoping you’ll wait
at the bottom
of bitter root lake

[verse]

passing over montana
we picked a place to land;
the air became our foe and
you held on to my hand

and when we hit the water
i saw your face in fright;
you were stuck and tangled
and i tried with all my might
swam on down to shore and
by myself i fled;
tried my best to save you
but i knew you were dead

[chorus]

diane, diane
i tried to stay with a plan…
diane, diane
i’m saying that i’m still your man

and i’m hoping you’ll wait
at the bottom
of bitter root lake

[verse]

the local kids who found you
said she don’t look quite right;
thought that you were sleeping
and the sun was shining high

you know, they never found me
i’m on the wanted list;
guilt has nearly k!lled me
and i don’t know how to live
dreams of you still haunt me;
i see you floating there
my love has never faded;
i dream of your wet hair

[chorus]

diane, diane
i tried to stay with a plan…
diane, diane
i’m saying that i’m still your man

diane, diane
i’m saying that i’m still your man

and i’m hoping you’ll wait
at the bottom
of bitter root lake
