Ballad

lyrics

Oh when we reach the golden shores
We will never have to lock our doors
And the widow and orphan will cry no more
When we reach the golden shores

With the strength of true community
We can brave the wild and raging sea
And if we could all learn to share the oars
We could reach the golden shores

I know the waves are rough
I know the breaks are tough
But I believe in golden shores

Oh when we reach the golden shores
We will see beyond the clothes we wore
There will be no rich and there'll be no poor
When we reach the golden shores

But if you believe that morality
Should be the ends and not the means
And if you insist upon keeping score
You will miss the golden shores

Until the fierce winds die
Make sure your head's held high
And set your sights on golden shores

Oh when we reach the golden shores
There will be no need to study war
So throw your weapons overboard
When we reach the golden shores

I think I see it now
Over the starboard bow
I think I see those golden shores
Can't you just see it now?
Can't you just make it out?
Don't you believe in golden shores?
Don't you believe in golden shores?
I think I see the golden shores
