"Children Of Paradise" lyrics

Norman Greenbaum Lyrics

"Children Of Paradise"

Youth, oh, sweet bird of youth
You're flying away from me
Oh, children of paradise
I wish I could be one of you

Years, they're passing so fast
They're so far ahead of me
Oh, children of paradise
I wish I could be one of you

Rompin' o'er the hills and dales
Flying kites in the noon
Toasting marshmallows
By the light of the silvery moon

Rompin' o'er the hills and dales
Flying kites in the noon
Toasting marshmallows
By the light of the silvery moon

Youth, oh, sweet bird of youth
You're flying away from me
Oh, children of paradise
I wish I could be one of you
