Every day I swim an ocean Fightin?' your memory like endless waves I?'ve surrendered to the truth, I?'ll always love you But I know someday I?'m gonna reach the banks of a distant shore Where I won't miss you anymore
Once in a while I?'ll ride the river Of whiskey wishes from an old shot glass But the way it used to be, follows me downstream So I keep knockin?' ?em back Till I reach the distant shore Where I won't miss you anymore
Someday I?'m gonna get there It might take my last prayer
But one these days im gonna cross that ocean Some sweet angel will set me free And they?'ll tell my story, sing a song about glory And read Psalm 23 When I reach the banks of that distant shore Where I won't miss you anymore
Gonna rest my soul in the hands of the lord Where I won't miss you anymore
