There's an empty pillow in the bed beside me Where not so long ago you lay your head It used to echo to the sound of happy laughter But the voice it used to echo now is dead And if you ever tired of chasing after rainbows And if you find the need of company is strong Won't you lift your eyes and look into the sunset Turn around pack your bags and come on home As I thumb through withered pages of your diary And the entry that concerns our wedding day I can't help but wonder if you really meant it When you said the words I do that happy day And if you ever tired of chasing after rainbows... I often wake to find the darkness that surrounds me Is not as friendly as the way it used to be And I wonder if tonight where you are staying Will you lay awake in bed and think of me And if you ever tired of chasing after rainbows... Won't you lift your eyes and look into the sunset Turn around pack your bags and come on home
