I've heard stories of love and stories of war
But they all rinse like a dream
Stains me with a memory
Of a place I've never seen
In the day I fight for who I am
(At night I dream of who I'll be)
In the day I fight for who I am
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
If I could only reach the sky
On this side of the rainbow
Someday I'll fly up all the way
To the other side
I've heard empty words and lullabies
Like a pendulum that sways
My hope 'till I am hypnotized
But, of course, they fade away
In the daydream where I'd like to be
(At night I dream of who I am)
In the daydream where I'd like to be
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
If I could only reach the sky
On this side of the rainbow
Someday I'll fly up all the way
To the other side
On the other side
I'll be there someday
On the other side of the rain
In the day I fight for who I am
(At night I dream of who I'll be)
In the day I fight for who I am
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
If I could only reach the sky
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
Someday I'll fly up all the way
To the other side
They all fade like a dream
Like a dream
But they all rinse like a dream
Stains me with a memory
Of a place I've never seen
In the day I fight for who I am
(At night I dream of who I'll be)
In the day I fight for who I am
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
If I could only reach the sky
On this side of the rainbow
Someday I'll fly up all the way
To the other side
I've heard empty words and lullabies
Like a pendulum that sways
My hope 'till I am hypnotized
But, of course, they fade away
In the daydream where I'd like to be
(At night I dream of who I am)
In the daydream where I'd like to be
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
If I could only reach the sky
On this side of the rainbow
Someday I'll fly up all the way
To the other side
On the other side
I'll be there someday
On the other side of the rain
In the day I fight for who I am
(At night I dream of who I'll be)
In the day I fight for who I am
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
If I could only reach the sky
On this side of the rainbow
In a world of black and white
On this side of the rainbow
Someday I'll fly up all the way
To the other side
They all fade like a dream
Like a dream
