El Dorado

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.
 
REFRAIN:
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 gray.
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.
 
REFRAIN
 
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.
 
REFRAIN
