We walk down to the water's edge
Gazing out over the sea.
Trying to see through the fog and mist
The Isle that's been calling to me.

I know that it is out there
For I've seen it oft in my dreams.
Going there in my heart and mind
Travelling on life's radiant beams.

My friend and I will soon go there
Together we'll stand on that other shore.
We'll experience the calm serenity
And memories we'll share evermore.

For now we'll wait for the mist to clear
As the joy between us does abound.
Our spirits are at last joined together
We treasure the friendship we've found.
