Fly to the Rainbow Lyrics

[Part I]
[Intro 0:00-0:51]

[Verse 1: Klaus Meine]
Life is empty, can't remember anytime before
On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore
Gliding through this life and another as 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

[Instrumental Break 1:51-2:16]

[Chorus: Klaus Meine]
Rain in the sky, make the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, make the world fly
Into time, back beyond time

[Instrumental Break 2:45-3:09]

[Chorus: Klaus Meine]
Rain in the sky, make the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, make the world fly
Into time, back beyond time

[Instrumental Break 3:38-4:03]

[Chorus: Klaus Meine]
Rain in the sky, make the world fly
Into time, back beyond time
Sun in the sky, make the world fly
Into time, back beyond time

[Part II]
[Instrumental 4:34-6:03]

[Verse 2: Uli Jon Roth]
Well, I lived in magic solitude
Of cloudy-looking mountains
And a lake made out of crystal raindrops
Roaming through space two thousand years ago
I've seen the giant city of Atlantis
Sinking into eternal waves of darkness
Shhh...

[Verse 3: Uli Jon Roth]
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!

[Instrumental Outro 7:37-9:37]
[Guitar Solo]
