Lyrics

With a wink from a starlet's eye a string of pearls come to life/who knows what black and crazy thoughts swim inside a girlfriend's heart/no brighter jewel is there above than the gem of a girl still in love/below the horizon the last crown jewel pales among the stars at noon/when out of the blue a rainbow rockets thru/a kiss from an old flame a trip to the moon/endlessly falling my way downtown someone to throw both arms around/who knows what black and crazy names swim around inside her brain/adrift across the silver screen just imagine you and me/our strolling make-believe ballroom glides set the rainbow room afire/off into the starlit nite two fools rush in you and i/feel the rough hand close behind above the heaven's open wide..
