When the child in you meets the child in me And the children with you walk with the children with me Then peace will come to the green green land And finally I will understand
The ferryboat waiting by the shore A father waving from a darkened door They’re taking his children to the promised land And then one day they will understand
The children play by the sycamore tree The lone star shines above the sea And soon we’ll be in the green green land And come that day we will understand
