Letter to the boy on the ivory shore Who seeks a song amid the ocean's roar I've got some idea what you are in for You'll hold a candle to a storm A candle to a storm And there'll be peace and there'll be war And everyday there'll be a door And there'll be days so beautiful You daren't forget, and even then days of regret The stars above will always shine But you'll learn in time Not all of life ends in a rhythm At least not most the time Letter to the boy on the ivory shore Who seeks a song amid the ocean's roar I've got some idea what you are in for You'll hold a candle to a storm A candle to a storm Well now you know, will you go, will you go, will you go? Will you go?
