Rainbow Lenses

You need me, reconsider you say
oh restlessly the wind blows
when your faced with eternity

Give time her due, she passes
in nursery rhymes
in troubled times

she passes away

Yet

I remember that day,
the day we first kissed

Fire fell from the sky
and I viewed it from a distance
through rainbow lenses

Don't know where those lenses are now
