Olive Hill
Cat Stevens
[Verse 1]
Once upon a lighting horse
Riding through the universe
Shedding light upon a thousand doors
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Verse 2]
On his back the prophet sat
Open-eyed not looking back
'Til they reach the sacred land
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Verse 3]
There upon a golden square
All the prophets joined in prayer
And the stars fell silent everywhere
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Bridge]
Then the heavenly ascent
Past the place where no soul went
This one soul was welcomed in
Time stood still
On the olive hill
[Verse 4]
Then the tale began to spread
Some would say he's lost his head
But for those who trusted
Light would spill
Around the olive hill
