lyrics

On the mountain beneath the cross
Sits a maiden on her own
Church bells ringing in the air
Mothers call your children home

A white dove swoops down from the sky
Landing on her outstretched hands
I’ll take you to a magic place
With unicorns & honest men

La, la, la, la….

They meet a cat along the way
Points them to a water fall
Behind that curtain is a land
With unicorns & honest men

Children dance and laugh out loud
No one has to be afraid
Innocence is never lost
Happy memories never fade

La, la, la, la….

The sky was green
With clouds of gold
Streets swept clean
Paved with hope

Maiden wakes up from her sleep
To the sounds of ringing bells
Was it real or just a dream
In the dark it’s hard to tell

From her window she stares outside
Hears a cat and white dove sing
Imagine if you can a land
With unicorns & honest men

La, la, la, la….
