You came here from a distant shore
   By your side, a friend and an open smile
   Coming over the mountains
   On the winding road
   You sit at my table
   As your stories unfold
  
   Chorus:
   Here is my home now
   Looking out at the sea
   Always wanted to be there
   Atlantic shore
  
   How can we listen to your heart
   When we cannot hear and understand ourselves?
   With a soul full of music
   Still refusing to dance
   But you knew all the old songs
   You're a stranger no more
  
   (Chorus)
  
   You know it's never been easy
   I could have told you so
   Your presence will linger
   On Atlantic shore
