[Verse 1]
Chasing rainbows for a lifetime that left you girl
Like shadows from the sun
Run into traces of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more
Than echoes of a day gone by
When someone else would have to try
To light the stars
In your sky
[Verse 2]
All the things you planned
Just sand castles washed away
On tidal waves of tears
The fears overpowering
Your complex dreams just slither down
Drowning in rocky pools
Or smashed and dashed on peril's course
Divorcing prematurely thoughts
Of lasting love
In your life
[Bridge 1]
Sometime when you've time to spare
Dreaming of missed opportunities
Spare a tear and douse your bridge (Burning)
Thirty years and on the ledge (Learning)
[Instrumental]
[Synth Solo]
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge 2]
All the things you planned (fading)
Thirty years in bed (waiting)
All the things you planned (fading)
Thirty years in bed (waiting)
[Verse 3]
Chasing rainbows for a lifetime that left you girl
Like shadows from the sun
Run into traces of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more
Than echoes of a day gone by
When someone else would have to try
To light the stars
In your sky, your dark sky
