TREASURE ISLAND
(Strider/Getz)
Saw a Ghost Ship sailing
Sailing in my Dream
A Satellite flew above the Skeleton crew
They watched it Silently

The Pirates in their Crimson rags
Sailed out of the Past
It was time to Raise the Flag
Skull & Crossbones to the mast

Treasure Island
Oh, to ride that Phantom Ship
Treasure Island
All my Life I’ve been Adrift
I can see it in the Mist

A price was on their head
But they were not afraid
When they reached the Southern Hemisphere
They sailed around the Cape

Searching for their Treasure Trove
Trying to get there First
It would satisfy their hunger
If they didn’t die of thirst

Treasure Island
Oh, to ride that Phantom Ship
Treasure Island
All my Life I’ve been Adrift
I can see it in the Mist

What did it mean?
What did it Symbolize?
Now I’ve sailed out of the mainstream
and crossed the Borderline

Treasure Island
Oh, to ride that Phantom Ship
Treasure Island
All my Life I’ve been Adrift
I can see it

Treasure Island
Oh, to ride that Phantom Ship
Treasure Island
All my Life I’ve been Adrift
I can see it in the mist
I can see it
I can see it in the mist___
