The Other Shore
Austin Lounge Lizards

As we reach the twilight hours of our fleeting earthly time

And know we will not see the sun tomorrow

We may think with deep regret of all the things we leave behind

But oh, my friends, do not give in to sorrow


On the other shore, on the other shore

We will reunite with all the things we ever owned before

Our single socks will all be to their rightful pairs restored

We'll meet all our possessions on the other shore


As we near those golden sidewalks floating on the clouds above

Assuming heaven is our destination

We may glance behind for one last look at everything we love

But truly there's no call for reservations


On the other shore, on the other shore

We'll have piles and piles of jeans we can't fit into anymore

We'll wear all those crazy cowboy shirts we got from Fred Labor

We'll meet all our possessions on the other shore


We'll find books we bought in college and sold for half-price unread

And sacks and sacks of earring backs lost under someone's bed

And baseball cards and army men and model planes galore

And every tiny plastic high-heel Barbie ever wore


On the other shore, on the other shore

We'll have giant storage units free of charge for evermore

Where our tax receipts will all be saved in bags upon the floor

We'll meet all our possessions


On the other shore, on the other shore

We'll find National Geographic from 1974

Our children's art will cover God's refrigerator door

We'll meet all our possessions on the other shore
