When I Reach My Destination

Lyrics

WHEN I REACH MY DESTINATION I?ve had my share of hard times And I?ve made a lot of friends Gotta a good woman who stood by me Through thick and through thin And when I reach my destination I?ll be with Jesus and our old friends I know you?re gonna miss me I?m missin? you tonight Just whisper I love you And it will be alright And when I reach my destination I?ll be with Jesus and our old friends I?ll look up some old family I?ll catch up with old friends I?ll ask how they?re doin? And I?ll tell them how we?ve been And the places that we?ve seen The family we?ve raised together The love we?ll forever share And those memories Well, I?ll look up some old family I?ll catch up with old friends I?ll ask how they?re doin? And I?ll tell them how we?ve been And the places that we?ve seen The family we?ve raised together The love we?ll forever share And those memories I?ve gotta say so long But this ain?t goodbye We?re only here for a visit Til we learn to fly And when I reach my destination I?ll be with Jesus and our old friends I?m right there beside you baby Every step of the way
