Children's Island
(Walt Perkins/Rick Torres)

Children laughing as they dance around
Time stopping as they sing their song
Fires burning in the liquid night
Flames turning the dark to light

Minds turning,
Eyes learning,
Making their own rules
and listening to no one
Just babies but they see
Things must change
They can no longer be
There's another way to be free

Children living from day to day
Another morning, they're here to stay
Living life with an open mind
Watching out for a brand new sign

(Chorus)
Children's Island
Another way to live
And another way to be free
Children's Island
Answer to no one
Live your life as you want to
Children's Island
Another way to live
And another way to be free
Children's Island
Answer to no one
Live your life as you want to
Life as you want to
Life as you want to.....

Wake up late in the morning sun
No one to please, no work to be done
Stay up all night and sleep all day
Nothing to do, just live to play

Minds turning,
Eyes learning,
Making their own rules
and listening to no one
Just babies but they see
Things must change
They can no longer be
There's another way to be free

(Chorus)
Children's Island
Another way to live
And another way to be free
Children's Island
Answer to no one
Live your life as you want to
Children's Island
Another way to live
And another way to be free
Children's Island
,,,,whoaaaaaaaaaaa!
(Guitar solo)

(Chorus)
Children's Island
Another way to live
And another way to be free
Children's Island
Answer to no one
Live your life as you want to
Children's Island
Another way to live
And another way to be free
Children's Island
Answer to no one
Live your life as you want to
Life as you want to
Life as you want to.....
