I On the Opposite Shore Will Be
Somewhere else I am a wife
I work the land, I sleep at night
I closed the curtains on that life
And here I am with my man
And I did some things a nice girl shouldn't do
I've gotta do better, be more like you
For now the dreams will have to do
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
Maybe I will never return (maybe I will never return)
Oh what if I never return (oh what if I never return)
To my mother and father seeing the ghosts in the house
And they never hear lyrics of the songs
They make up the words as they sing along
They've got three daughters on three continents
Yeah my sisters are much too far
I like living here but I'd like to be where they are
I like living here but I'd like to be where they are
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
I work the land, I sleep at night
I closed the curtains on that life
And here I am with my man
And I did some things a nice girl shouldn't do
I've gotta do better, be more like you
For now the dreams will have to do
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
Maybe I will never return (maybe I will never return)
Oh what if I never return (oh what if I never return)
To my mother and father seeing the ghosts in the house
And they never hear lyrics of the songs
They make up the words as they sing along
They've got three daughters on three continents
Yeah my sisters are much too far
I like living here but I'd like to be where they are
I like living here but I'd like to be where they are
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
And I on the opposite shore will be
Working on this one life patiently
