White, White Dove Lyrics & Chords By Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel

Harley

(Rose and Cross) So is the battle lost ?
Is there now no time to jive ?
(Rose and Cross) You know the price it's cost
But the hope is still, the hope is still alive.

(Rosicrucius) Is your story told ?
Or is there still more to come ?
(Rosicrucius) From my simple soul
I shall eat the morning, eat the morning sun.

If I was ordered not to travel another mile
If I was told I could never see another city
There is one thing I'll always hold, that's the smile
Of the symbol that is peace, the white white dove.

(Rose and Cross) Can we ever toss
All our prejudice aside ?
(Rose and Cross) Turn this petty loss
Into hope and glory, into hope and glory with pride ?

(Rosicrucians) Paint your symbols fair
Write your verses in the sand
(Rosicrucians) You missed Baudelaire
But we still extend, we still extend our hand.

And if I was ordered not to travel another mile
If I was told I could never see another city
There is one thing I'll always hold, that's the smile
Of the symbol that is peace, the white white dove.

If I was ordered not to travel another mile
If I was told I could never see another city
There is one thing I'll always hold, that's the smile
Of the symbol, the symbol that is peace, the white white dove.
