Once upon a time in a land called fantasy
Seventeen mountains stood so high
Sea surrounded them an' together they would be
Only thing that ever made you cry
You said the devil told you that another mount will appear
Everytime somebody broken your heart
He said the sea would one day overflow with all your tears
An' love will always leave you lonely
I say it's only mountains an' the sea
Love will conquer if you just believe
It's only mountains an' the sea
There's nothing greater, you an' me
Once upon a time in a haystack of despair
Happiness sometimes hard to find, yeah
Africa divided, hijack in the air
It's enough to make you want to lose your mind
I say it's only mountains an' the sea
Love will conquer if you just believe
It's only mountains an' the sea
There's nothing greater, you an' me
Guitars an' drums on the run
Mummy, I'm comin'
It's only mountains an' the sea
There's nothing greater, you an' me
