One day I saw my rainbow
In G-d’s sky
While working upon Paradise
I heard his lullaby
It is far, far away -- beyond the moon,
Beyond my salt tears; -- space beyond my brain --
Not a place I get to -- by train or plane:
Everyday He lullabies me His tune.
One day I saw my rainbow
In G-d’s sky
While working upon Paradise
I heard his lullaby
I thank my Angels and Muses -- so gay:
They tell of Heaven’s beautiful place --
I know He is guiding me with His Grace,
As I continue my journey today.
Like the Twister from The Wizard of Oz,
This disease came and tore my world apart --
My doctor refused to repair my heart:
--I find myself fighting another cause!
So my journey/story continues on --
This yellow brick road blinding with my grief;
In hopes one day my rainbow shines relief --
As I listen to Judy Garland’s song.
There’s days when my journey’s winding and long,
And where I have lost my way and insight,
I carry my heavy load, -- and His light --
And seen only by hearing His chante song:
One day I saw my rainbow
In G-d’s sky
While working upon Paradise
I heard his lullaby:
"One day you’ll see your rainbow
When you’re high
Dream, dream, dream if you dare –
Let your soul fly"
Journey with me Scarecrow and the Tin Man --
Let’s walk and greet our cowardly Lion,--
We’ll meet up with the daughter of Zion --
Joined compassionate friends, forming a clan.
Confront the Wizard to repair my brain --
Where I am so confuzzled and confused,
Some days I just don’t know what I should do --
Life for me is living under a strain.
Demand Him -- send courage -- to climb my hill --
To keep me moving through my world of grief,
My life stole by an anonymous thief --
Now my whole world seems to be standing still.
Fields of poppy flowers, I lay to sleep,
Scarecrow drags me down the yellow brick road --
Its these friends who carry my heavy load,
When I rest within my abyss so deep.
If I could click my ruby red shoes three --
Four times – and the Wizard of Oz is true,
"There’s no place like home", I recite in blues --
As pains jolt me back to reality.
If I could wake up from this nightmare dream --
Witness my childhood innocence once more ;
Experience every opened door --
To leave behind demonic thoughts of grief.
Since my life has not been a fairy tale --
Wishes are few and cannot come true,
My dear clan friends, I have come to love you --
’Member this when we gather near my dale.
Meantime, with G-d and you on my side:
Search a cure, to a curable dis-ease;
I will continue my journey -- find peace --
Finally see the endurance light:
One day I saw my rainbow
In G-d’s sky
While working upon Paradise
I heard his lullaby:
"One day you’ll see your rainbow
When you’re high
Dream, dream, dream if you dare –
Let your soul fly
One day you’ll finally see the light
And wake up to your reality
And see: --
Where nightmares flow in champagne tears
Confronting your childhood fears
That’s where you’ll be --
And then you’ll see your rainbow.
Where princes go --
To become kings within their souls,
Joining Nicholas Rowe.
Upon the poet’s throne --...
(Bridge...faded voices sing
Double rainbow Rowes
Is where you’ll go."
Yes my friends, (slow for the final...)
...somewhere over my rainbow --
is my place that I heard,
in His lullaby.
