Lyrics:

I saw three kings riding through the dessert as the day begins,
'We bring great joy to the birth of a baby boy,
By the star we have been led,

To this place,' then someone said,
'The people that you´re looking for have never been here at all',

I saw two birds, one was a hawk, the other was a dove,
One said, 'I am war', the other one said, ' I am love,'
As they flew up to the sky, they got too close to the sun,
And with a flash of light the dove fell to the ground;

Sometimes we never know, when it´s time for letting go,
Last night I heard them say 'No!
We will never let that happen again!'
But it´s a long, long way from here to Bethlehem,
Yes it´s a long, long way from here to Bethlehem;

I heard one man saying that the lion can lay down with the lamb,
But in the cage there´s nothing left,
The lion has gone and the lamb is dead,
No one gets in or out, and to be heard they´ve got to shout,
That the words of the lord are written on the city walls;

I saw Saint Paul talking to the devil, like the best of friends,
They said 'let´s make a deal and bring this cursed war to an end',
As they stood there shaking hands,
The Devil signed his name to the plan,
After a couple of days there was nothing there at all,

Sometimes we never know, when it´s time for letting go,
Last night I heard them say 'No!
We will never let that happen again!'
But it´s a long, long way from here to Bethlehem,
Yes it´s a long, long way from here to Bethlehem;

Much has changed in the modern world,
There´s no time for the long ago,
Many problems that we have,
Are from the Greatest story ever told,

And it´s a long, long way, to Bethlehem,
It´s a long, long way, to Bethlehem,
It´s a long, long way, to Bethlehem,
It´s a long, long way!
