Under the Rainbow

Lyrics & music by

Rick Springfield & Matt Bissonette

(Under the rainbow)

(Under the rain)

I am happy here

Under the rainbow

Benedict and Paul Revere

All within a stone's throw

Let all the bluebirds fly

I'm content here just to lie

Underneath the rainbow

As it spans the twilight sky

Don't wish upon a wishing star

It only makes you wish for more

Look at what you're asking for

It's all within you

Somewhere there's a dreaming sea

The water taxi waits for free

And if you really want to see

Your eyes will open

And at some point there's a knife

It cuts you deep and life

Begins

I am happy here

Under the rainbow

Axl Rose and Edward Lear

All within a stone's throw

Let all the bluebirds fly

I'm content here just to lie

Underneath the rainbow

As it spans the twilight sky

Don't shoot the messenger with the news

If you won't stand there in his shoes

When music only brings the blues

You're still a dancer

Send the word and make it true

The sky lights up a deeper blue

And if the word comes back to you

You found your answer

The clouds won't rearrange

But your life will never change

If all you do is dream

When life and labor stops

Above the chimney tops

You fly (under the rainbow)

(Under the rain)

I am happy here (so happy here)

Under the rainbow

Francis Bacon and Shakespeare

All within a stone's throw

Let all the bluebirds fly

I'm content here just to lie

Underneath the rainbow

As it spans the twilight sky

Underneath the rainbow

As it spans the twilight sky

Underneath the rainbow

As it spans the twilight sky

(Under the rainbow...)

(Under the rainbow...)

(Under the rainbow...)

(Under the rainbow...)

(Child speaks.....)
