Fly To The Rainbow

1. Speedy's Coming LYRICS
You look at a poster
You look at the wall
The wall in the room where you live
Where you live with your stars
Just listen to his records
Now hear what he says
For he says, "I love you little girl
Come to see me today"

Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart

You like Alice Cooper
You like Ringo Starr
You like David Bowie
And friends in the Royal Albert Hall
Stick up the pictures, movies, TV
And I'll bring you the show little girl
Come to see me today

Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart

You like Alice Cooper
You like Ringo Starr
You like David Bowie
And friends in the Royal Albert Hall
Stick up the pictures, movies, TV
And I'll bring you the show little girl
Come to see me today

Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart
Speedy's Coming
You live in his heart

2. They Need A Million LYRICS
I see a rainbow in the sky
So many colors and the light
I see the world and I see all the people
How they're running all the time

I see your shadow over me
Then in my ears I hear a symphony
I see the world and I see all the people
What they are doing what they need

They need a million and a billion
And your money too
They need a million and a billion
And your moeny too

I feel fine though I realize
That I don't need the million
They are all poor

I feel fine though I have eyes
To see my world and all it skits on ice

I feel fine though I realize
That I don't need the million
They are all poor

I feel fine though I have eyes
To see my world and all it skits on ice

3. Drifting Sun LYRICS
Well, sitting on a stone,
Sitting all alone,
Sticky things are rolling down the mountain.
Well, see the lonesome tramp
Who's living in the damp
Nobody's in the valley

Shine on, shine on, Sun - oh it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, Sun - shine on all night long

Daydreams are of silent blue
Icy wings will carry you.
Midnight Sun will never shine
Just ravings of a fool you think
And laugh about him all the time.

Shine on, shine on, Sun - oh it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, Sun - shine on all night long

White pale velvet Autumn Sun will fade away
Forgotten Life will finish now in endless grey.
Some days are drifting haze
Some days are glowing blaze
Some days are tides of life...

Staggerin' along a tropic highway
Crazy lights are whirling 'round and 'round
Hell or heaven - Night or Day?
Burning fingers push the Sun away...

Shine on, shine on, Sun...

4. Fly People Fly LYRICS
And I see the tears in your eyes
The rain will fall tonight
And tonight we'll go to the sky
Because and we fly

All together
Fly to the sky
Fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly

And I see the smile on your face
When you look into space
He's so bright and he is so great
Come on or it's too late

All together
Fly to the sky
Fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly

See the rainbow in the sun
The man will not go
And the world they have no fun
Hurry up people run

All together
Fly to the sky
Fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly

All together
Fly to the sky
Fly to the rainbow
Fly people fly
Fly people fly

5. This Is My Song LYRICS
I can't believe what the people say
There's only hate everywhere
So many people go different ways
So many things don't you care

They see nobody, they see themselves
But a stage like in a show
They see the hell, and they need your help
They need your help, they need love, love

This is my song
I tell you about the story of love
This is my song
I tell you about the story of love

This is my song
I tell you about the story of love
This is my song
I tell you about the story of love

I think I need you, you need me too
The place where we live is here
The world is griping what can I do
For you and you everywhere

I sing this song 'bout the world of love
And hope you hear what I say
Forever freedom, forever love
Forever love everyday

6. Far Away LYRICS
Take your hand and you take my hand
Let's try to learn to fly
Here what I say, here what I say
Dream and close your eyes

Too much hate
Too much hate
So many things are wrong
So many ways, so many ways
Flying through the sky forever
into another time

Yesterday so far away
Many miles together
Were looking for a way

Day by day
So far away
All the world
To do the same

So we go together
Will you show me the way
Time has gone
It has gone

Far away, far away

And today
I'll see a way
Follow me we love you
Just listen, what I say

Forget your name and yesterday
Put out your hand
I'll do the same

Now were going to another land
Will you show me the way
Time has gone
It has gone far away
Far away

7. Fly To The Rainbow LYRICS
Life is empty, can't remember anytime before,
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore,
Gliding through this life, and another is a child,
and we're doing games, and losing things,
Always playing gigs.
Somewhere in the sky, where the moon the stars shine bright,
Where the sun is shining, in the night.
I am in disgrace, yet i see a smiling face,
and i hope you let me, share your place.
I don't live today.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Rain in the sky , make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.
Sun in the sky, make the world fly,
Into time, beg me your time.

Well, I lived in magic solitude
Of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops ...
Roaming through Space tenthousand years ago
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis
Sinking to eternal waves of darkness ...

Somewhere in the blue distance
Are those long-forgotten trees of yore
A broken violin floating alone in December
Darkness everywhere and nothing more.

Symbol - strange Symbol - Melancholy
Painting torrid colors to a sky of green
Candle breathing one night only
Far away - in chillness - bleak - unseen ...

Drifting galley - ghostlike shadow,
Sails rigged to catch and kill the Time...
Echoes wandering down an endless meadow
To call the Thing ... Sublime !...
