BUT FINALLY THE TEARS FILL OUR EYES 
AND I KNOW THAT SOMEWHERE TONIGHT 
SHE KNOWS HOW MUCH WE REALLY MISS HER   

SHANNON IS GONE I HOPE SHE'S DRIFTING OUT TO SEA 
SHE ALWAYS LOVED TO SWIM AWAY 
MAYBE SHE'LL FIND AN ISLAND WITH A SHADY TREE 
JUST LIKE THE ONE IN OUR BACKYARD   
JUST LIKE THE ONE IN OUR BACKYARD
