Asia Listen Children Lyrics

(Wetton/Downes)

The time is right for dancing, New Moon is rising high
The stars they shine like diamonds do, within a velvet sky
Who cares when it is midnight? No curfew here, I swear
The angels dance with us tonight, the Devil won't be there
Warm breeze from the Sahara, at St. Rene? l'Abbe?
Fling your shoes into the wind, and roll your cares away

Listen children, what's that sound?
Won't you come and hear our music play
All good children gather round
And we'll dance the holy night away,
What you say?
Step this way
It's okay... Our troubles are but bubbles, floating off toward the moon
This special time is precious, for the morning comes too soon
So, listen to the music, and join us if you dare
Come and take a breath of this intoxicating air
This is a perfect evening, there's magic here tonight
If you believe in miracles, there's plenty here tonight

Listen children, what's that sound?
Won't you come and hear our music play
All good children gather round
And we'll dance the holy night away,
What you say?
Step this way
It's okay
E? coutez!
