On a cold and grey October day our family moved away
From a thirty acre farm in Tennessee
And the part for me in the schoolhouse play would have to wait
On a rainbow that only daddy would ever see
That was when my mama started praying
Lord let him dream but make him realize
That dreams won't feed the children that we're raisin' today
Oh Lord take the rainbow from his eyes
Well even after I grew older we kept waitin' for the home
That daddy kept on building in his mind
And on the day he passed away he took my mama's hand
And said honey I can make it just give me time
Jesus I pray that you'll forgive him
For dreaming away my mama's life
And Lord if there's a rainbow up in heaven today
Please Lord let it shine in my daddy's eyes
