	Through the years this has been one of the favourites of many critics. Not for me. Written by Paul and Denny and sung by Denny. It's about children and maybe therefore it sounds childish. Denny's voice is better than on his previous efforts and the harmonies are fine as usual, but the song in itself is not good enough to my ears. The part from 1.52 sung in semi Scottish is a painful moment.	Bobber	April 11, 2012
	I have always held in very high honor a rock and roller who endeavors to create a song specially for children (Jimmy Buffett's "Jolly Mon Sing", Carole King's "I'm Really Rosie" album, and the Peter, Paul, and Mommy album, etc.). This is quite a nice little song, performed beautifully and with a lot of heart.	Bruce Beatlefan	April 24, 2006

Lyrics

I know a tyne waterfall
A magic little place
Where we can play together
And watch the fishes race

Children children where are you
Hiding in the forest playing in the rain
I hope you not too far away
For me to see again

I know where there's a fairy
Who will invite us all to tea
But she won't let me in alone
You'll have to come with me

Children children where are you
Hiding in the forest playing in the rain
I hope you not too far away
For me to see again

I know a tyne waterfall
A magic little place
Where we can play together
And watch the fishes race

Children children where are you
Hiding in the forest playing in the rain
I hope you not too far away
For me to see again.
