(timothy b. schmit)



Taking it easy

Wasting my time everywhere i go

Then you try to please me

Telling me things i already know

Think i'm going on a vacation

Slippin' on my shoes

Do i need an explanation,

One that i can use?

But i know - that it shows - here i go



Skatin'...oh -

Skatin'...over the water

Skatin'...through my heart,

Through my heart i go



I can't deny it

Giving is such an easy task

You just got to try it

'stead of wondering what you're

Gonna ask

Outside my window it's freezin'

And the day is new

Tell myself that i believe in

What i know ain't true

Yes i do know - that it shows - here i go



Skatin'...oh -

Skatin'...over the water

Skatin'...through my heart,

Through my heart i go



What good does it do for me to say

You're going nowhere?

On the lake the ice will pave your way

Leave it all behind just to get there



Skatin'...oh -

Skatin'...over the water

Skatin'...through my heart,

Through my heart i go
