Over Rainbows and Rainier

The angel Moroni asleep in the carport

With the newspaper under his arm

It seems I was late to deliver his car keys

So it looks like we are staying behind

Was Lucifer bashful

In hiding his face from the Lord?

Dear Jesus, forgive me

I'm only doing as I was told

For as it is written

I will soon one day face my own fire

This world will go with me

If I can just get them all on my side

Carry me over rainbows and Rainier

Carry me over rainbows and Rainier

I was late to the parlor

When the wind it blew forward

And demanded we get out of town

So me and Moroni

Took the keys to the steeple

And awaited Armageddon to go down

Place your queens on the table

Who are weeping for your daughters

Who are waiting for their Sunday to return

Every heart will be broken

Prophetic poems spoken

From the mouths of every baby to be born

Carry me over rainbows and Rainier

Carry me over rainbows and Rainier

Let your cries be enjoyed

May it always and forever fill the void

Allow my heart some room

May it be so that you'll one day need me soon

My wheels that are turning

And my back to the window

I collected every wave from the shore

I forgot I was human

And I laid up my emotions

And I knocked them like dishes to the floor

Carry me over rainbows and Rainier

Carry me over rainbows and Rainier
