I Will

I'm going to an island

Where the sun will always shine

Where the moon is always riding on the sea;

And when I go I'll leave behind

These chains that hold me down

The time has come to set my spirit free

Ah ah I will

And there beside a mountain stream

I'll build a house of stone

And work the wood of cedar pine and fir

And then I'll make a garden

And I'll plant a field of corn

Press my hands deep into mother earth

Ah ah I will

Yes I will

Just to be a part of nature once again

And I will

And then I'll teach my children love

Like every father should

For we are part of every living thing

And speak of half-forgotten words

Like peace and joy and good

For the world can only live when love can sing

Ah ah I will

Oh yes I will

I will

And they will be a part of nature once again

Oh they will feel a part of nature once again

The time is now

Just to be a part of nature once again

And I will ah ah someday I will
