Sangtekst: Tear Garden. You And Me And Rainbows.

You're number eight
Your name is Jane
With black hair, braids
And black lines around your eyes

Shades to hide your habit
I don't know your age
Though you guessed mine
My sign, your sign

The opening line
Is always just the same
The same intention, destination
You and me and rainbows

Loaded guns attract
We know the rules, we don't react
We wait in hope, we don't expect
You and me and rainbows

Down here everything is fine
We have a straw, we have a line
We have a bag of rock hard mountains
With a string of shepherds driving lions
Aiming skewers at the sheep
Face down, asleep in onion fields

The frying fields, the worms
They peep through holes which once were eyes
They thrive

They bake although we painted out the sky
The sun
There's only thunder
And you and me and rainbows

Let's hide out in the lay-by
Let the time fly by tonight's disguise
A car crash with our wheels like shattered stars
Dashboard charred
Our windscreen like a graveyard for the flies
(We're fast)

The hungry flies are circling, mourning
As the watchers squat with cameras, cakes and flasks
They're spying
Spitting as the blue light flashes
Axes, axes, axes swing
(We're broken)

Broken wings
But sure we'll fly
And reach our destination
You and me and rainbows

And if we turn the lights down low
And watch the sky cry through the window
Will I watch your fingers grow
And stretch like butterflies?
The shadows flexing

Licking toes, and blinding as slowly
The sun sets on the same old hill
The same red glow
We're quite alone
Just you and me and rainbows

Everything I own is in the corner of your room
It's covered with a sheet just like it died
But I will take a broom
I'll sweep it new again, arrange it

Oh, I'll grow a dozen hands
No I never will neglect my world again
I'm safe beneath my blanket
Come home for you, for me and rainbows

Loaded guns attract
We know the rules, we don't react
We wait in hope we don't expect
Just you and me and rainbows
Looking down
