Rainbows Lyrics

When I was a boy, I could do anything.
I could climb up a tree, or fly kites on a string.
In the night, by the light of fireflies,
I'd run with the wind right by my side.
Oh, how I loved the wind.
Now I never had the impossible dream.
And I guess I outgrew wanting gossamer wings.
But I'd look at a rainbow in the sky,
Wonder about the other side.
Oh, how I loved to dream.
But I've gone and grown up. I'm a man.
And the world ain't turned out like I planned and thought it should.
But I still got some dreams to come true.
Now if only they would,
Surely I could
Reach me a rainbow.

Years love to pass without telling you why.
And the days chipped away at your dreams from inside.
And the things that you thought you'd always do
Run out of time ahead of you.
Oh, how the years can fly.
But I've gone and grown up. I'm a man.
And the world ain't turned out like I planned and thought it should.
But I still got some dreams to come true.
Now if only they would,
Surely I could
Reach me a rainbow.
Deep in my heart lives the boy that I knew.
Though his eyes aren't as bright, his dreams are still new.
And returns in my sleep from time to time.
Smelling of mud and dandelions.
Just like I remember.
When I used to dream.
If I only could reach
Rainbows.
