Children Of The Wild World

verse 1 You probably come from Canada Where the cold wind chased you down Is that a touch of snow upon your wings Are you headed southward bound Move quickly wild bird The hunter comes from town He longs to see you on his wall You match his mantelpiece in brown Faster wild bird The sun is sinking down I'd love to ride your noble wings I would utter not a sound There must be some kind of blue sky somewhere God made especially for you Children of the wild winds Go there now Take what's left of living for you verse 2 same chords: You probably come from Asia Where the seas are deep and clear When you rise to break the rolling waves Your body glistens like a mirror Faster great blue one It's the fisherman I hear There's a pretty price upon your head They're paying well for you this year Faster great blue one Your darkest storm is near I'd love to ride your great blue tail All your secrets I'd hold dear There must be some kind of blue sea somewhere God made especially for you Children of the wild waves Go there now Take what's left of living for you verse 3 You probably come from Idaho Where the cool air treats you right Where you roam the sauntered mountains In your savage delight Move quickly brave bear The builder scales your heights Your home to him's worth millions now So there's nothing he won't try Faster brave bear The moon is losing light I'd love to run the trail with you Scream your courage through the night There must be some kind of mountain somewhere God made especially for you Children of the wild lands Go there now Take what's left of living for you There must be some kind of new world somewhere God made especially for you Children of the wild world Go there now Take what's left of living for you
