This is the mystery of the quotient
Upon us all a little rain must fall
Never blame the rainbows for the rain
And learn to forget the memories that cause you pain
The last whispered wish of age is to live it all again
So never blame the rainbows for the rain
Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what’s on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide.
We believed we’d catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
Sail away on ships of wonder
But life’s not a wheel with chains made of steel
So bless me
Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, baby
Every time you come around
If ever I return, pretty Peggy-o
If ever I return, pretty Peggy-o
If ever I return, all your cities I will burn
Destroying all the ladies in the are-e-o
Destroying all the ladies in the are-e-o
When you shook your long hair down my defenses crumbled;
feeling I’d begun to drown, all my words got jumbled.
Not a word would come to mind, I felt a child of seven.
When you shook your long hair down I saw one hope of heaven.
I was left without a chance, no hope of a returning;
in your eyes I saw a glance of all my bridges burning.
Now your ships are burned
And the evil has returned
It will creep upon you
There’s nothing to do
It will rip up your mind
And death you will find
Life is just a game
And death is just the same
Burn down the mission
If we’re gonna stay alive
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
See the red flame light the sky
Sisters and brothers daddys mothers standin’ ‘round cryin’
When I reached the scene the flames were makin’ a ghostly whine
So I stood on my horse’s back an’ I screamed without a crack
I say oh baby why’d you burn your brother’s house down ?
Hey ! Hey ! Hey ! Hey !
Look out the sky turn a hell fire red Lord
Somebody’s house is burnin’ down down, down down
Welcome to the abandoned land
Come on in child, take my hand
Here there’s no work or play, only one bill to pay
There’s just five words to say as you go down, down, down
You’re gonna burn in hell
Oh, burn in hell
And we gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
Gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
We gonna let it burn, burn, burn, burn
Oh, I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain.
I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end.
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend,
but I always thought that I’d see you baby, one more time again, now.
See Me
Feel Me
Touch Me
Heal Me
I don’t want anybody else
When I think about you I touch myself
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, baby
Can’t you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why won’t you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?
You made me promises, promises
You knew you’d never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe?
Did you write the book of love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so?
Do you believe in rock ’n’ roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Don’t believe that rock ‘n’ roll
Can really change the world
As it spins in revolution
It spirals and turns
I, I believe in love
The moving finger writes,
And, having writ, moves on.
You can’t hold back the clock -
It just ticks on and on
