There is a rainbow over Santa Fe You were on a side street and you were walking away There is an airplane in the right corner of the sky There is a newness right here for you We walked toward the square around 8 p.m. There is a Zydeco band playing near the outdoor restaurant I can hear everything you say I swear I met her over at a bar on Water street We stayed up drinking until 2 a.m. and in the parking lot we tried to slow dance to the sounds of the night Oh we tried to slow dance we tried to slow dance The music gets louder coming from someone's pickup truck The sky starts to wake up and you are underneath the awning of the Georgia O'Keefe museum trying to get a little more sleep The morning it came in cold You tried to get some tourists to buy you breakfast at the Five & Dime General Store They said no The sky drifts away the sky it drifts away I saw you again that next night dancing by yourself in the square I walked up and tapped you on your shoulder as the music got louder and then we tried to slow dance we tried to slow dance we tried to slow dance we tried to slow dance I swear I can hear everything you say

about

For Bandcamp Friday - Single and extra songs from the Lewis the Light album The Narrow World Gets Dark:
lewisthelight1.bandcamp.com/album/the-narrow-world-gets-dark

In the early evening there is a rainbow in the sky over Santa Fe. You walk toward the square. There is laughter coming from the balcony of a 2nd story bar. In your mind it is five years ago and you are slow dancing to the sounds of the night in the parking lot of a bar on Water street. You fall asleep in the early morning under the awning of the Georgia O'Keefe museum. You ask some tourists to buy you breakfast, but they say no. It rains all morning and then again in the sky there is another rainbow over Santa Fe.

Any money paid for this release or any Lewis the Light album will be given to the SF Coalition on Homelessness (www.cohsf.org)

"Satisfied with his care and the width of his belly, Lewis escaped and returned to San Francisco, where he was arrested after ripping open his clothing and asking passersbys to witness the divine light that burned in his breast."
