The Olive Tree |
When evening by the olive tree |
Strangest thing came over me |
A vision deep inside my soul |
Like outta time, in days of old |
This funny feeling made it seem |
Like I was caught inside a dream |
As pharaohs layin' down to sleep |
With riches, stones, and slaves to keep |
I saw the Christians shed their blood |
I saw Noah fight the raging flood |
And as I watched, a mammoth drank |
From waters by the tundra bank |
Before the ice caps melted down |
The seas of liquid all around |
Before the sultans drew the sword |
Before the story of the world |
Before the Druids raised the spear |
Genghis Khan spilled blood and tears |
Before we got here, you and me |
Way before the olive tree |
This funny feeling, running through |
It was kinda like a deja vu |
I really love that feeling when |
You know you’re coming back again |
Before the ice caps melted down |
The seas of liquid all around |
Before the sultans drew the sword |
Before the story of the world |
Before the Druids raised the spear |
Genghis Khan spilled blood and tears |
Before we got here, you and me |
Way before the olive tree |
