Once I was a man of fortune Lived my life with pearls and gold Had my time with wine and roses I never thought of getting old
Time went by and I got wiser Loved and lost, along the way I found the meaning of forgiveness Pardoned enemies and prey
When it rains, I look for rainbows When it´s dark, I see the stars Call me a dreamer, call me naïve I will always say, the best is yet to come Call me a simple man, call me naïve On my dying bed I´ll say, the best is yet to come
Many times, I feel like screaming Bang my head against the wall Watch my luck run through my fingers Losing faith in all
Then I close my eyes in silence
Feel the spirit, that I crave April showers, bring May flowers Growing on my grave
When it rains, I look for rainbows When it´s dark, I see the stars Call me a dreamer, call me naïve I will always say the best is yet to come Call me a simple man, call me naïve On my dying bed I´ll say, the best is yet to come
The best is yet to come The best is yet to come
When it rains, I look for rainbows When it´s dark, I see the stars
