Ravenna Woods — An Atoll lyrics

Lyrics

There is a little village that I saw in the middle of the ocean
People — living good and living right; they’re just taking walks and having
talks
Through the days and nights…
Waking up in the middle of the night — you’ll hold the spear and I’ll be
shining the light
Little lanterns on the ocean side, floating down a star lit trail in the dead
of the night…
They shared every last thing that they had, so we shared our lives together —
Through the good and bad
I had many laughs and even fights — I had parents, friends and relatives
On that little island
I remember a little girl that died, went to her funeral — her relatives were
right by her side
Playing music in my old classroom;
Students sneaking outta their dorms just to catch a tune
Gotta keep the little kids in school
To learn about the politics of old men, guns and rich fools…
