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
