The Rainbows Answer.

kevin browne

I think I've found an answer, the answer in my ears
But, don't laugh too often, try not to laugh at all
When in different places old people and their tears
And if nothing ever happens take me back to school.

I think I've found an answer, the answer in my heart
But, don't love too much in all those different places
When the end is dreaming we'll go back to the start
And if you hold your senses you'll hold your own graces.

In different places where the pain is mostly lost
All the different answers, all the troubling pain
And things you borrowed turns out to be a loss
If you hold your own more then learn to love again.

I think you found the answer, the answer is a jest
Don't cry too much when the tears are flowing
When thoughts are bursting, bursting out a chest
Think of all the children playing, simply playing.

I think the rainbows answer is for a pot of gold
Don't let the answers kill you, it's just for you and me
Colours warming in our hearts now that we are old
And if you can raise the ocean then sail the seven seas.

I think these other places, these other ones exist
Underneath tree branches hiding from the rain
Water running over rainbows, rainbows persists
And if you can hold your heart then learn to love again.

Don't laugh loud enough for someone to care
And don't you ever, don't you ever give up
Something changes when sometimes is rare
And if you can hold your nerve don't give in to love.

I think the tears have stopped now that I am gone
Smile at all those answers just to make them last
And some things are always there even if it's wrong
And if you hold your beauty then you will forget the past.

Don't think you need the questions, not a single one
Don't think you need the answers, not for me and you
When winter shows her hand she shines on everyone
And if you think you got closer, close to the things you do.

        Lines of wisdom Kevin
        Someone cleverer than me once said

        "You don't have to be old to be wise but you have to be wise to grow old"

          You reminded me of my father. He's used quote ever since I can remember and he used to say it to me almost every day even until this day nearly 50 years ago. Thank you for your comment, dear Andrew...
