I wake the morning sun, gold as the ring that I wore Back when we woke as one, on a distant shore... There life is blooming now, close by the wide oceans roar If I could buy wings I'd fly to that distant shore
When you think of me, sing a heart-spun song When it's over, sing it once more When you dream of me, dream when I'll meet you On that distant shore
Love sleeping in my arms, Eyes like your father before Born to have your father's need For a distant shore
When you think of me, sing a wide-open song When it's over, sing it once more When you dream of me, dream when I'll meet you On that distant shore
Life is a stormy sea, Hearts can be tattered and torn I still believe peace can be found On that distant shore
When you think of me, sing an unbroken song When it's over, sing it once more When you dream of me, dream when I'll meet you On that distant shore On that distant shore
