about

One of my co-writers on this song, Noa Tishby, wanted a song about a forbidden love between an Isreali girl and a Palestinian boy in a kind of Disney cartoon style movie theme.

lyrics

I won't give you up simply because
they say you're on the other side
So don't let them take the smile i adore
Try to have faith our love will carry on
I heard a tale from many year ago
The story goes like this:

Once upon a time, beyond the stars
there was a boy and a girl
who were blessed to find a love like ours
and though they faced a wall of pain
they're still together on the other side

Maybe someday, somewhere far away
Maybe a thousand years from now
Two lovers like us will look at the sky
And one will speak of our legendary love
and tell a tale from many years ago
and say it goes like this:

Once upon a time, beyond the stars
there was a boy and a girl
who were blessed to find a love like ours
and though they faced a wall of pain
they're still together on the other side
The other side...
