Though I can understand why that final part it missing, because there's sort of a pause at approx. the 5:30 mark, after which the melody (vocal, and by the band) change abruptly; it'd be easy to think it's a different song, if not for the phrase "to the core" (and the track markers on a CD).
Also, most sites on other domains which purport to have the lyrics of this song, they only contain the last six lines from those seen above.
I'll take a shot at it: though not perfect, as I have no reference. It doesn't help that with English being their second language, Bettie Serveert lyrics don't always make a lot of sense.
So...incomplete, and possibly wrong...but better than nothing, I'd hope:
Why do I hesitate
Why does it all feel like some big mistake?
Tell you how I feel
And if it's real
To the core and so much more
I guess I never knew before
How to confide in
This [???]
Down in this curtain lake [huh?]
I learned to compensate
Tell you how it feels
And if it's real
To the core and so much more
I guess I never learned before
How to confide in
This [???]
So [???]
@foreverdrone I looked up the lyrics myself on their official site (bettieserveert.com) and it unfortunately stops where it does on this site. But I don't think the words are "curtain lake". English is actually the singer/lyricist Carol van Dyk's first language; she was born in Vancouver, Canada and lived there until she was seven I think. Now I'm gonna have to listen to that song to try and remember/figure out the lyrics to the last part. :p
