Cat Stevens - Olive Hill Lyrics

Once upon a lighting horse
Riding through the universe
Shedding light upon a thousand doors
Time stood still
On the olive hill

On his back the prophet sat
Open-eyed not looking back
'Til they reached the sacred land
Time stood still
On the olive hill

There upon a golden square
All the prophets joined in prayer
And the stars fell silent everywhere
Time stood still
On the olive hill

Then the heavenly ascent
Past the place where no soul went
This one soul was welcomed in
Time stood still
On the olive hill

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
