And now we go again
And now we go out to the water where this song began
And on the water there's a ship beside an angel
And she calls me out
The clouds are rolling in
A change is coming and I don't know when we'll meet again
And I will hold you for the last time as we sing again
And on the avenue
The broken bottles sing the like a drunken muse
And I am praying like a pilgrim to the holy moon
That I'd soon forget you
And oh my shore
How I long to go homeward to you once more
But onward beyond we're drawn
Out toward the distant dawn
The doves are sailing in
In high formation like a wall that's finally caving in
The skies fall softly on the pavement where we used to sit
And it's all clear now
I'm in a mess but I have saved my best for last again
And on the frontier I'm a sailor, I'm a soldier
And I'd almost die to hold you now
And oh my shore
How I long to go homeward to you once more
But onward beyond we're drawn
Out toward the distant storm
Well how I long to go homeward to you once more
But onward beyond we're drawn
Out toward the distant dawn
And oh my shore
How I long to go homeward to you once more
But onward beyond
But onward beyond we're drawn out toward
The distant dawn
