One sweet day when my life is finally over
Then I don't have to worry any more
I am bound on a path so filled with glory
And I'll meet you over there on the other shore
In this life there's always time to change
Might feel a little bit weird at first
Yeah it may sound a little strange
But one sweet day when my life is finally over
I'm gonna meet you over there on the other shore
One sweet day when my life is finally over
Then I don't have to worry no more, no more
I am bound on a path so filled with glory
And I'll meet you over there on the other shore
Cause in this life there's no time for regret
Sooner or later, gotta lay down your burden
Forgive and forget
But one sweet day when my life is finally over
I'm gonna meet you over there on the other shore
One sweet day when my life is finally over
Then I don't have to worry no more, no more
I am bound on a path so filled with glory
And I'll meet you over there on the other shore
In this world you don't get no second chance
So when the band strikes up and starts playin' your song
You better dance, sister, dance
But one sweet day when my life is finally over
I'm gonna meet' you over there on the other shore
