Distant Shores Lyrics

Distant Shores lyrics

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
