2 blessed beyond belief

beyond the rainbow

as much as i loved the life we had and all the times we played,

i was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.

i saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free

where all of us can meet again to spend eternity

i saw the most beautiful rainbow, and on the other side

were meadows rich and beautiful ~lush and green and wide

and running through the meadows as far as the eye could see

were animals of every sort as healthy as can be

my own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new

and i wanted to go run with them, but i had something left to do

i needed to reach out to you, to tell you i'm alright

that this place is truly wonderful, then a bright glow pierced the night

twas the glow of many candles shining bright and strong and bold

and i knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold

for although we may not be together in the way we used to be,

we are still connected by a cord no eye can see

so whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart

if you look beyond the rainbow and listen with your heart

c.g. 1995

love you forever, andy ...
