I wanna live in a land of lakes Where the great waves break And the night runs right into the day I wanna be with the ones I left But I'm way out west And the years keep on slipping away I wanna run on the sacred dunes Through the ancient ruins Where the fires of my ancestors burned I remember that fateful day When I ran away And you told me I couldn't return
You made me swear I'd never forget I made a vow I'd see you again I will be back one day, and I'll find you There by the great big lake
I been running a long, long time Trying to flee that life But I can't seem to leave it behind Wanna visit the windswept shores Of a time before When the moon and the stars were aligned I remember the bright spring day When you sparked that flame And a fire that continues to burn I remember the day I left Headin' way out west When you told me to never return
You made me swear I'd never forget I made a vow I'd see you again I will be back one day, and I'll find you There by the great big lake I will be back one day, and I'll find you There by the great big lake Send "I Will Be Back One Day" Ring
