In Colour

The rocket, that sits in my garage,
It runs on hopes and dreams.
And it's bursting at the seams,
To get out of this town now!
I've got a map of the universe,
And don't know where to go first!
But I'll bring back a souvenir.
Here, I thought that I was
Sleeping, with eyes closed tight.
And somehow, I'd be
Dreaming, in broad daylight.
I have to wonder.
Here I am, a hopeful rocketeer,
With space exploration gear.
There's room enough for two,
That's why I'm glad I found you here!
We'll go to Jupiter and Mars,
Far above the roads and cars.
So high up in the air.
Here, I thought that I was floating down...
and sleeping, with eyes closed tight.
And somehow, I'd be
Dreaming, in broad daylight.
And when I dream about you, so late at night.
That's when I dream in colour, so true and bright.
That I have to wonder.
Late nights spent on the avenue,
Bright lights illuminate the city view.
The air is clear and you can see for miles around.
(around, around)
Here, I thought that I was hearing,
A symphony.
Filled with strings that play in,
Twelve-part harmony.
And everywhere I go, they follow me.
Through the air, they play in colour,
That you can see!
Here, I thought that I was
Sleeping, with eyes closed tight.
And somehow, I'd be
Dreaming, in broad daylight.
And when I think about you, so late at night.
That's when I dream in colour, so true and bright.
That I have to wonder.
