Lyrics Transatlantic

Transatlantic

Rose Colored Glasses

Long ago he saw the light of day

Then the wind it blew the man away

And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses

But I believe the man is going home

Long ago he set the ship aright

Then he sailed away into the night

And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses

But I believe the man is going home

And I know that we are more than dust and ashes

And one day we will know what we have known

But on the dark side

There are times of suffering

(And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses)

But as the pages turn

One day we'll learn of everything

But now we see through glass...

When the ending came I said goodbye

I hope to meet him on the other side

And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses

That I believe we have the greatest hope

(I believe we have the greatest hope)

And I'll sing this as we're scattering the ashes

I believe the man has gone back home...

(I believe the man has gone back home)

But on the dark side

There are times of suffering

(And I don't believe I wear rose colored glasses)

But as the pages turn

One day we'll learn of everything

But now we see through glass...

This world is not our home

You can live like a rollin' stone

But you cannot escape with your life

We seek a city on fire

With the heart of a child's desire

We will cross that bridge

and enter into life

Real life...

But on the dark side

There are times of suffering

But as the pages turn

One day we'll learn of everything

But through the dark years

But there are tears and suffering

But as the pages turn

One day we'll burn like lightning

In that city in the sky!
