Rainbow Carousel

Angel came to me late last night in my dreams
& she said that things are not always what they seem
Then she told me coincidence is more than a lucky chess
It's a sign, it's a way to see into the light
CHORUS:
Everything happened for a reason
Every path you follow takes you down that line
You've got your destination, I've got mine
I've got mine, yes I do
She took me on a trip to the land where the children run the show
She took me by the hand & led me down through the desert & the snow
When I opened up my eyes, my surprise was to look at the simple truth
There's a path you can follow if you open up your heart
(chorus)
(instrumental)
(chorus)
Angel took me home, I awoke, there were flowers on my bed
My lady pulled me close, & this too kept floating through my head
(repeat & fade):
Riding on the rainbow carousel
