Song Description

Contemplative song of a travelling musician

Lyrics

I took a ride out in the country, I took a ride in the month of June
There was time for me to ponder, the old man up in the moon.
He shined so ever brightly, but he shined so all alone
did he care for the bright lights or did he miss a happy home.
No I did not find the answer, I did not find what?s right
was it the moon shining lonesome or was it just the way I feel tonight.


I took a ride out in the country, I took a ride the other night
and in the valley down below me, I saw a warm, inviting light.
So I drove on down the mountain, just to see the happy home
For the light that shined within made me feel so all alone.
No I did not find the answer and I still don?t know what?s right
Is it the road thats heading downhill or is it just the way I feel tonight.


Now the road it goes on forever and mountain stands so high
and the rainbow I?ve been chasing is always yonder another mile.
And I miss my pretty lady and I miss my little child
Are they the rainbow I should chase or are they the reason why.
No I did not find the answer, I still don?t know what?s right
is the rainbow I should be chasing, back at home with them tonight.
