There is something inside of us all
that's wondering where we're gonna go
when all the lights are turned down low
lately the news is weighing me down
I get confused, whats life all about
I'm ready for some answers now

what if I keep my eyes on you
could I sail across the ocean blue
and your Son will guide me through
if I go, yes I know, I'm headin' home

once upon a time when i was so young
lookin' back at all the things that I've done
I wonder if you were around
cause my family prays with all their hearts
that I could change, and I'm ready to start
thinkin' it over

what if i keep my eyes on you
could i sail across the ocean blue
and your Son will guide me through
if I go, yes I know, I'm headin' home

and wouldn't it be nice
if we could live twice
and watch the sunset
just one more time
and wouldn't it be nice
if we could live twice

if I should die before I wake
I'd pray the lord my soul to take
