Lyrics
Walking up the Side of a Rainbow
Anthony Caplan
I wish it were easy to have no fantastic dreams
Live in a world so real I can touch the sun beams
And walk up the side of a rainbow then its splendor I'll know
Or get in a boat made for one and through the clouds I'll row
Just close your eyes if you want to travel as far as the moon
Magical lights on the rocky terrain ensure that you remain
You won't leave too soon
The landscape is turning and the blue sky is changing its hue
The trees are a growing all over where there were just a few
The leaves now become stars as I gaze up in wonder at the glorious night
Where elves and gnomes ride high on comets tails, Oh what a sight
I'm happily laughing as I'm drifting through the air
The world's moving so very slowly and I haven't a care
Old Mr. Sun has just showed me his fire golden hair
A peacock parades as his feathers turquoise and green spread out in a flair.
