Dreaming at a shoreline. (Different shores, same ocean)

© December 2011 N J Sole You are dreaming at a shoreline, your feet say go, go, go. You are dreaming at a shoreline, your brain says no, no, no. The ocean is too wide, the boat it is too small. Too many people share your dream, too many heard the call. Go, go, go. No, no, no. You’re hoping at a shoreline; you're hoping for a better day. You’re hoping at a shoreline; you're hoping for a new doorway. The ocean is so wide, the boat it is so small. But heaven’s on the other side, the nice side of the wall. Go, go, go. No, no, no. You’re looking at a shoreline, the one you’ve left behind. You’re looking at a shoreline, a dream place for mankind. You’re looking from a boat; you’re looking at the sea; You’re looking at a wake you hope will smile and set you free Go, go, go. No, no, no. You’re looking for a shoreline, a heavenly place to see. You’re looking for a shoreline, a heavenly place to be. The waves are very tall; the waterline is low; You fear you’re losing all your dreams, and everything you love Go, go, go. No, no, no. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We’re dancing at a shoreline, looking at the settting sun. We’re dancing at a shoreline, and life is joy and fun. We’re drinking chilly beers; and eating shrimp and bread. We’re smiling at the girls; our whole life lay ahead. Go, go, go. Just go, go, go. No…. No, no, no.
