CLOSER TO THE RAINBOW

by Jupiter Allan

It's our symbol of promise It's our symbol of hope I'm promisin you my friends We're going to reach the ropes That seem so far Out of our grasp But we got these voices so strong And they yell with one great big gasp CHORUS: Follow the rainbow! Follow the rainbow! Everybody let your colours shine And follow the rainbow! (2x) Everybody sings About what the summertime brings But do they sing about wintertime What about autumn and spring? Cause throughout every season This promise must sustain Through every period of sunshine Through every moment of rain CHORUS (2x) BRIDGE: You may not find a leprechaun On the other end You might not find a pot of gold But the treasure is your best friends Yes throughout every season now This promise must sustain Through every period of sunshine Through every single moment Of rain! CHORUS (8x)

Someone give me eyes to help me see The truth that's standing right in front of me What's obvious to you is not to me Because there's something there that just can't be PRE-CHORUS: And emotion rises over the landscape Yes, emotion rises over the landscape CHORUS: Everyone's singing different songs Songs for which we all can't sing along Oh, it makes me cry 'Cause everyone's doing everything There's just that one regret, we just can't sing About our world going by! Someone give me ears to help me hear The truth that's standing there so very clear Maybe it's just me, but I can't listen 'Cause everytime I do, I just don't understand PRE-CHORUS 2X CHORUS 2X

I thought I finally had a friend At the edge of the rainbow I had thought I finally had a friend To call my own But why do you have to go away now? Why does it have to be this way? Still, in my heart, you'll always be That's where you will always stay! CHORUS: Though the heart should never say good... Never say goodbye There's a chance I'll always see you Again at another time! Though the heart should never say good... Never say goodbye There's a chance I'll always see you Again at another Again at another time! I had thought I finally had a friend Far away from my home I had thought I finally had a friend Never to make me feel alone But why do you have to go away now? It's hard to fight back the tears Still, if you're deep inside my heart now Our love will never disappear! No, it won't! CHORUS 2X

It's that aura of magic That tunnels its way down through those streams of life It's that feeling of wonder That you get when you reach that final sight It's that feeling of awe That you get when you reach that next destination It's that reason for being When you get a grip on that fascination CHORUS: It's at the core of who we are The center of every star The core of every living being On the land, in the earth, in the sea and sky It rises up from the sea To show us where we can be Together as we live on In the moments That we try! It's that feeling you get when you go down that tunnel To truth and justice without pain It's that feeling you get when you find a reason To go on without falling down again Give it your all, and pretty soon, you'll be spared the pain! CHORUS So rise on up! Come on up above! See what can be seen! Rise on up! Come on up above! See what can be seen! CHORUS 2X

This is all I can tell you The choice is left for you to decide This is all I can show you It's time for you to look right down inside CHORUS: Our hearts live on in the magic The magic lives on in the hearts of those who care Our hearts live on in the magic And there will be no stopping it there This is all I can give you The chance for you to turn things around This is all I can hope for you Please don't let everyone down! CHORUS 2X Please, come on, show 'em what can be done Tomorrow depends on you today! Come on, my friend, show 'em it's not the end Tomorrow relies on you today! CHORUS 2X Our hearts live on in the magic And there will be no stopping it there! Our hearts live on in the magic And there will be no stopping it there!

Someone from long ago Heard my song, that I know And they taught me how to feel Like what was in the song was real And they helped me reach The summit of my peak And they helped me reach The summit of my peak! CHORUS: Someone heard my song Someone heard my song Someone heard my song Someone heard my song Someone I have rarely seen Taught me what the song should mean When I sang it loud and proud Though no one else in the crowd Could hear it singing loud and clear and steong They couldn't hear it singing loud and clear and strong! But... CHORUS 2X They heard it singing clear and true They heard me singing it, singing it for you They heard me sing it clear as a bell I will sing it again so you can tell! CHORUS 2X Someone heard my song Someone heard my song!

I can't do this anymore I'm lying on the cave floor Waiting for this cloud to lift from me My heart has broken My soul isn't woken I'm lying in the spills of tea and coffee My spirit's lurking, my mind isn't shirking I'm belonging in another part of the forest My world is shaken, and I am waiting For someone to put all my nerves at rest CHORUS 1: The question is, do I belong here Or do I belong in another realm of the Unknown? If I do, then why has it taken so long For it to be shown? If I belong, do I belong with my friends? Or who are my friends to be with? If I do belong elsewhere, I need to know Who am I meant to be in this? I am me on my own And my room is prone To voices all around me as I wait I can barely speak at all My heart is weak, I can't break my fall And I'm waiting for my chance so come on, where's the fate? I am me down in the dumps The beating of my heart it thumps On my chest, I can feel the pressure So, where is the answer? Come on, Universe, where's the answer? Oh, yeah, yeah yeah! CHORUS 1 I'm leaving it all behind Just so I can find The solution of all I need I'm bound to be freed! Yes indeed, you're all that I need to be freed indeed! Oh yeah! CHORUS 2: The answer is I belong here And I belong in no other place that I've known If I have, then why has it taken so long For it to be shown? 'Cause here I am, I belong with my friends The friends that I knew I could be with I don't belong anywhere else, I know I know who I'm meant to be in this 2X I know who I'm meant to be in this! I know who I'm meant to be in this!

I've lost people that I thought were my friends Because I couldn't, not wouldn't, meet their lame demands And I've lost friendships that I thought I could trust And they left me hanging here screaming in the dust And now they stare down at my blank face And left me sitting here just clenching my fists in rage But thanks to you now, the sadness has all gone away 'Cause your rainbow pride in the sky, it made my day! And I say... CHORUS 1: Love is love is love Love is love is love Love is love is love Love is love is love We are beautiful enough! I've told people I thought were closest to me About who I really am and ought to be And now they tell me I'm a bad example Now my life, oh now my life is all in a shambles Now they stare down through my front door But they see I'm a lot better off than I was before 'Cause thanks to you now, the sadness has all gone away 'Cause your rainbow pride in the sky, it made my day! 'Cause I say! CHORUS 1 CHORUS 2: Love is love is love Love is love is love Love is love is love Love is love is love We are us and that's enough! CHORUS 1 AND 2 Love is love is love We are beautiful enough! Love is love is love You are you, I am I And we are enough! Yeah! Whoo!

Everybody says "There's only so much you can do" And I hate to admit it But I'm afraid it's true! Everybody says "You can do it alone" But what's the use of doing it If you're doing it all on your own? And I'm afraid it's leaving A silly mark on my front door! And I don't think I can stand it now Anymore! CHORUS: But I still got a chance to prove That I'm all that I say I can be And I know it's not easy But just you wait and see! I still got a chance to prove That I'm all that I say I can be And I know it's not easy But just you wait now Just you wait and see! Everybody says "You can do it alone" But what's the use of doing it If you're doing it all on your own? Everybody says "Don't be so hard on yourself" But it's hard not to be hard on yourself When your pride isn't on the shelf! And still it's leaving That silly mark on my front door! And I don't think I can stand it now Anymore! No, not anymore, no, no no no No! CHORUS Hw can I tell you now How I'm feeling? I don't know! But I don't think I can tell you that much more! How can I tell you now Just how I'm feeling? I do not know! There's one thing I do know for sure! Oh, oh yeah! CHORUS I still got a chance to prove That I'm all that I say I can be And I know it's not easy But just you wait now, just you wait now Just you wait now Just you wait and see!

When I thought I was confused And I didn't want to say the truth Because I didn't want you to be hurt It was easier to say "Get out of my way" And your feelings, well, I treated you like dirt It's easier to lie Than to have to say goodbye But right now, looking in your eyes... Let's have some fun 'Cause when our day has come We can say our two hearts are already one! CHORUS: Come on, let's make our together last forever 'Cause forever is all we got in this present time! Come on, let's make our together Last forever! 'Cause forever is all we got Forever is all we got Forever is all we got in this present time! When I thought I was confused And I couldn't even look at you Because I didn't want there to be any trouble I didn't know what to say Any old way But now I see the trouble is double It's easier to say I don't want to see you anymore, anyway But now I see it's wrong to believe otherwise So come on, let's have some fun Before our time has come 'Cause I see looking in your eyes A big surprise! CHORUS 2X
