Hi Ken,
That was a really nice listen. I love the hook! It's such a wonderful way of looking at the effect of time. Very creative.
Is it possible to post the lyrics? There were some words that I couldn't appreciate properly - even after a few listens. That could well be related to the fact that I'm Australian but it would be great to be able to see the whole story.
All in all, wonderful!
Noel

Thank you for the comments. For those who asked my mother is doing well, and wishes y'all could see the rainbows. She cried when she heard the song, I'm taking that as a compliment
Noel96 I am pasting the words to this song
Rainbows Around the Moon (Verse 1) Mama sits on the back porch breathing Gazing at the empty chair Talking to the cool wind drifting Never seems to be unaware Visits with the angels listening Golden shadows lighting off her hair Satisfied with a knowing smile Says goodnight to the breathless sky
(Chorus) She watches rainbows around the dark moon Talks to angels in her palace room Dances in the hope of glory Prays to God she’ll be going home soon
Verse 2 She pours a glass of that Texas sweet tea Walks along an unpaved road Talks of days of misty tear stains Soft and low while her hunger grows Knows one day when the angels are calling She’ll see her loved ones there Talks of Jesus, I can almost see Him While she sings and old time hymn
(Chorus and Instrumental)
(Bridge) She dreams in colors of the moonlit rainbow Keeps her change in an old fruit jar Wishes on a four leaf clover Wanders off among the stars
(Chorus)
