Lyrics & Music: Paul Kantner
|
|
You have left your body be aware if you care
|
Your mind has left your body and for this one moment you are
|
|
Under the polar ice cap in a place we call home
|
How is it there white bear like that where you grow...
|
|
Now all of you come back to here and now elsewhen to there
|
Move on out the other way where...
|
Do you find yourself floating growing there
|
|
chorus
|
|
Riders of the rainbow
|
Let it grow let it grow
|
|
You can exercise your mind on where you want to go
|
And y'can see the city lights flashin' two thousand miles below you
|
|
You can feel the sands of Zanzibar or pierce the nearest sun
|
Find out what and who you are and if you need to run
|
|
|
chorus
|
|
Riders of the rainbow
|
Let it grow let it grow
|
|
There is one moment in your life and it can come at any time
|
And you remember all of what went on from the instant you were born
|
Thru your early years
|
|
And if you can fasten on that moment and expand thru the afterglow
|
You can reverse your mind in time and travel back to when
|
|
The earth was formed
|
The sky was born
|
And the universe began
|
|
chorus
|
|
Riders of the rainbow
|
Let it grow let it grow
|
|
|
You have left your body
|
Return when you may
|
|
Save it for another day... beyond you
|
|

Your Mind Has Left Your Body
