in colour

the rocket that sits in my garage, it runs on hopes and dreams, and it's bursting at the seams to get out of this town now!, i've got a map of the universe and don't know where to go first-, but i'll bring back a souvenir, here, i thought that i was sleeping with eyes closed tight, and somehow, i'd be dreaming in broad daylight, here i am, a hopeful rocketeer, with space exploration gear, there's room enough for two, that's why i'm glad i found you here!, we'll go to jupiter and mars, far above the roads and cars, so high up in the air, here, i thought that i was floating down. and sleeping with eyes closed tight, and somehow, i'd be dreaming in broad daylight, and when i dream about you so late at night, that's when i dream in colour so true and bright, late nights spent on the avenue, bright lights illuminate the city view, the air is clear and you can see for miles around, so high above the earth's atmosphere, gravity can no longer hold me captive here, when i'm awake all i think about is seeing your town, i thought that i was hearing a symphony, filled with strings that played in twelve part harmony, and everywhere i go they follow me, through the air they play in colour that you can see!, here, i thought that i was sleeping with eyes closed tight, and somehow, i'd be dreaming in broad daylight, and when i dream about you so late at night, that's when i dream in colour so true and bright
