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
