Fantasy Island
I'm badly in need of a holiday
It happens every year at this time
Need to go where the palm trees grow
And the sun shines all the time
A total break from everyday stuff
And the frigid Canadian winters
Somewhere where the moon above
Causes the waves to shimmer
An island paradise away from it all
The every daily trials at home
To lose myself on a fantasy island
No email, no internet, no phone
A place where time doesn't exist
Where nothing is done in a rush
The pace is slow and oh so easy
With surroundings green and lush
The vision I see is heaven on earth
Hope one day it will all come true
Till then I'll shiver and curse out loud
And my lips again turn blue!
