INTRO
|
Over the mountain
|
Across the sea
|
There's a girl, she's waiting for me
|
|
Cross over the river, beyond ev'ry clou-oud
|
She's passed the wind that's blowing loud
|
Over the mountain, a girl waits for me-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee
|
|
Tell all the sands and ev'ry blade of gra-ass
|
Please tell the wind to let my love pa-ass
|
Over the mountain, a girl waits for me-ee-ee-ee-ee
|
|
Tell the moon up in the sky
|
Tell the birds that fly-y by
|
That over and over and over the mountain
|
My love waits for me
|
|
Into each dark and starry night
|
Oh, what a myst'ry that's sealed so tight
|
Over the mountain, a girl waits for me-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee
|
|
Wah, wah-ooh, wah-ooh
|
Wah, wah-ooh, wah-ooh
|
FADE
|
Wah, wah-ooh, wah-ooh
