Lyrics
- And no one knows it
- Where she came from, where she's going.
- And once you meet her,
- You will find that something inside is changing.
- She's like a rainbow
- When she comes up, all are lit up.
- And when she whispers,
- You will hear this: "Don't chase after rainbows".
- High on a hill, there's a green meadow.
- All around, it's breezin',
- She's smilin',
- She'll let them sing angel songs.
- She's like a fairy
- When she's trembling, when she's dancing.
- Just see her rambling
- How it's nice to follow her to the end.
- You want some meanings of the life,
- And go to see her.
- Don't ask her too much
- Oh yes, she'll be out of your sight
- Right over.
- High on a hill, there's a green meadow.
- All around, it's breezin',
- She's smilin',
- She'll let them sing angel songs.
- Everyone is sad and blue when she is far away.
- Don't you know it's time to pray she'll be coming soon?
- And you think you hear her voice ringing from above.
- And no one knows it
- Where she came from, where she's going.
- And once you meet her,
- Maybe you'll stay forever young.
