Verse 1
Well hope is an anchor, and love is a ship
Time is the ocean, and life is a trip
You don't know where you're goin' till you know where you're at
And if you can't read the stars, well you better have a map
A compass and a conscience so you don't get lost at sea
Or on some old lonely island where no one wants to be
Repeat Intro:
Verse 2
From the beginning of creation I think our maker had a plan
For us to leave these shores and sail beyond the sand
And let the good light guide us through the waves and the wind
To the beaches in a world where we have never been
And we'll climb up on the mountain, y'all, we'll let our voices ring
And those who never tried it, they'll be the first to sing
Repeat Intro
Chorus
Oh my, my
I'll see you on the other side, if I make it
And it might be a long hard ride but I'm gonna take it
Sometimes it seems that I don't have a prayer
Let the weather take me an-y--where
But I know that I wanna go where the streets are gold 'cause you'll be there
Oh my, my
Verse 3
Well you don't bring nothin' with you here and you can't take nothin' back
I ain't never seen a hearse with a luggage rack
So I've torn my knees up prayin', scarred my back from fallin' down
Spent so much time flyin' high till I'm face first in the ground
So if you're up there watchin' me, would you talk to God and say
Tell Him I might need a hand to see you both some day...
Chorus 2
Oh my, my
So I'll see you on the other side, if I make it
And it might be a long hard ride ,but I wanna take it
Sometimes it seems that I don't have a prayer,
Let the weather take me anywhere,
But I know that I wanna go where the streets are gold, 'cause you'll be there
Oh my, my
'Cause you'll be there
Oh my, my
Verse and chorus 2 are same as 1
