Paradise Island (Original Song)

This is a song I wrote about Paradise Island in the Bahamas - one of my favorite vacation spots in the whole world. A few years ago, we had a family vacation at the Atlantis resort at Paradise Island and had a great time, so I wrote a song about it. This tune has a nice beach song vibe to it, so if you like songs by artists like Jimmy Buffett, you should like this song as well. I have included the lyrics as subtitles in the video. Enjoy!

Lyrics:

First Verse:

It was a cold, cold winter but spring is finally here
The kids are still in school but spring break is drawing near
It's time to board a puddle jumper and hop across the sea
On the tarmac at Nassau town is where I want to be

Chorus:

Hop across the bay where the sharks and dolphins play
It's a place called Paradise Island and it's where I want to stay

Second Verse:

On the walkway we tread carefully as the sharks and rays swim by
Underneath the Predator Lagoon a big grouper says hi
On the pyramids of Atlantis the kids go up and play
While the parents lie out on the sandy beach and catch ourselves some rays

Chorus:

Hop across the bay where the sharks and dolphins play
It's a place called Paradise Island and it's where I want to stay

[Instrumental]

Third Verse:

At night we hit the tiki bars as the blazing sun goes down
Drinking frozen rum drinks will get rid of any frown
We watch the lights of Nassau town as we look across the bay
This is the best vacation that we had to this day

Chorus:

Hop across the bay where the sharks and dolphins play
It's a place called Paradise Island and it's where I want to stay
