Riding the Rainbow
If I could catch a rainbow,
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
on the days you're feeling blue.
If I could, I would build a mountain.
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity,
a place just to be alone.
If I could, I would take your troubles
and toss them into the sea,
but all these things
I'm finding are impossible for me.
I can not build a mountain
or catch a rainbow fair
but let me be what I know best.
A friend who's always there.
I promise to defend you.
Should the occasion ever rise.
And I promise to wipe away the tears
which might stream from your weeping eyes.
Let me be the trusted friend,
the one that you know best.
I will never leave you,
on that, you can surely rest.
