Bird Island

I have a place I love to go
If I could just get there
I have a place my heart is at home
If I could round the fare
The water, the good friends, the boating
The swimming, the sunset over Bird Island

When we all get together, our laughter turns back time
I’m a teenager again with these great old friends of mine

Gathered in Swanie’s camp kitchen or
Around the fire pit
Dodging mosquitoes listening to the banter
The sharp tongued wit
Of loving souls, kind hearts half lit

When we all get together, our laughter turns back time
I’m a teenager again with these great old friends of mine

Jumping off your Dad’s boat, underneath the stars
Everyone is so happy we’re all laughing really loud
Our mini Woodstock, out on Scotty’s Island
People dancing naked in the rain to The Pumps and Harlequin

When we all get together, our laughter turns back time
I’m a teenager again with these great old friends of mine

I have a place I love to go
