El Dorado
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In sunshine and shadow, from darkness till noon
Over mountains that reach from the sky to the moon
A man with a dream that will never let go
Keeps searching to find El Dorado
So ride, boldly ride, to the end of the rainbow
Ride, boldly ride, till you find El Dorado
The wind becomes bitter, the sky turns to grey
His body grows weary, he can't find his way
But he'll never turn back, though he's lost in the snow
For he has to find El Dorado
So ride, boldly ride, to the end of the rainbow
Ride, boldly ride, till you find El Dorado
My Daddy once told me what a man ought to be
There's much more to life than the things we can see
And the godliest mortal you ever will know
Is the one with the dream of El Dorado
So ride, boldly ride, to the end of the rainbow
Ride, boldly ride, till you find El Dorado
