Tom Waits - Rainbow Sleeves lyrics

You used to dream yourself away each night To places that you've never been On wings made of wishes that you whispered to yourself Back when every night the moon and you would sweep away To places that you knew you would never get the blues Now whiskey gives you wings to carry each one of your dreams And the moon does not belong to you But I believe that your heart keeps young dreams Well, I've been told to keep from ever growing old And a heart that has been broken will be stronger when it mends Don't let the blues stop your singing Darling, you only got a broken wing Hey, you just hang on to my rainbow Hang on to my rainbow Hang on to my rainbow sleeves
