When the evening turns to gold
And thoughts return to my home
That is when I miss you most of all
Many oceans we have crossed
To find a place we can stay
Now only dreams can take us back again

And we will go there together
And watch our river flow
We will stay there forever
The place we cannot go
And we will dream of our homeland
Upon that distant shore
Lay your head on my shoulder
'Till you cry no more

The autumn leaves will fall
And here the dream for us all
Is someday we will see our home again

And we will go there together
And watch our river flow
And stay there forever
The place that we will go
And when we're back in our homeland
Upon that distant shore
With your head on my shoulder
You will cry no more
With your head on my shoulder
You will cry no more
