Artist/Band: Nina Simone
Lyrics for Song: Beautiful Land
Lyrics for Album: Four Women: Nina Simone Philips Recordings [2003]



Anthony newley, leslie bricusse



Red is the color of a lot of lollipops,

Orange is any orange on a tree.

Yellow's the color of a bag of lemon drops,

Green is a piece of seaweed in the sea.



Blue is the color of the sky in summertime

Indigo is a siamese cat's eyes.

Violet's the color of a flow'r in wintertime.

These are the colors of the rainbow skies.



There is a beautiful land

Where all your dreams come true;

It's all tied up in a rainbow,

All shiny and new;

But it's not easy to find



No matter what you do.



It's not on top of a mountain

Or beneath the deep blue sea

Or in london zoo or in timbuktoo,

Or in timbuckthree.



And if you travelled the world

From china to peru,

There's no beautiful land on the chart.

An explorer could not begin

To discover it's origin

For the beautiful land is in your heart.
