Where Rainbows Never Die - Saint Paul’s Parish Choir, Saint Paul’s Boy Choristers, Saint Paul’s Girl Choristers & Jeffrey Smith

I'm an old man now, I can't do nothing Young folks don't pay me no mind But in my day, I sure was something Before I felt the heavy hand of time I'm an old man now, I'm bound for glory Time to lay these burdens down Had enough of this old world of worry Gonna trade my troubles for a crown I will make my way across the fields of cotton And wade through muddy waters one last time And in my dreams I come out clean When I reach the other side Waste away the sunsets Where rainbows never die I've got on last thing to do One more mile before I'm through Casting off these earthly chains Going where there's no more pain I will make my way across the fields of cotton And wade through muddy waters one last time And in my dreams I come out clean When I reach the other side Waste away the sunsets Where rainbows never die I'm an old man now, can't do nothing Young folks don't pay me no mind

Hands on a window pane Watching some children laugh and play They're running in circles With candy canes and French braids Inspired to question What makes us grown-ups anyway? Let's search for the moment When youth betrayed itself to age So let the children play Inside your heart always And death you will defy 'Cause your youth will never die Never die In searching for substance We're clouded by struggle's haze Remember the meaning Of playing out in the rain We swim in the fountain Of youth's timeless maze If you drink the water Your youth will never fade So let the children play Inside your heart always And death you will defy 'Cause your youth will never die Never die Never die Never die I won't let go of that youthful soul Despite body and mind, my youth will never die (never die) I won't let go of that youthful soul Despite body and mind, my youth will never die Hey, hey So let the children play Inside your heart always And death you will defy 'Cause your youth will never die So let the children play Inside your heart always And death you will defy 'Cause your youth will never die Never die
