Lyrics

I looked for you across the ocean,
I searched for you, but the anchors tied
I paid my dues with pure devotion
To be with you I sold my, sold my pride

So I will climb this mountainside
For you I'd cross the Great Divide
This heart is stronger than the oceans deep and wide
For you I'd cross the Great Divide

I cannot see beyond the lamplight
And I called your name aloud, yeah
Leaves rustle softly in the twilight
Silence answers me, no, you just can't be found

So, I will walk from sea to sea
Just like the honey draws the bee
Where mended souls begin, that is where I'll be
Just like the honey draws the bee
Just like the honey draws the bee

Well I have travelled through the ages
You know the fear I feel inside
But like a book with empty pages
There's still something left for you and I to write

I will climb this mountainside
For you I'd cross the Great Divide
This heart is stronger than the moon that pulls the tide
For you I'd cross the Great Divide
For you I'd cross the Great Divide
For you I'd cross the Great Divide
