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
Oh I will
Just to be a part of Nature once again
I want 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, (someday I will)
