While lookin' at my feet
At a crack in the sidewalk
An old tin can by the side of the road--
I nearly missed a rainbow,
I nearly missed a sunset,
I nearly missed a shootin' star goin' by!
While studyin' a brand new hole in my sneaker
And findin' a quarter and an old bus token--
I nearly missed a rainbow,
I nearly missed a sunset,
I nearly missed a shootin' star goin' by!
Lookin' down at the ground means you know where you're goin'.
No head--up--in--the--clouds to lead you astray.
But, you can't ever have any kind of dream that way.
While lookin' at my feet
At a crack in the sidewalk
An old tin can by the side of the road--
I nearly missed a rainbow,
Don't want to miss that sunset.
I wouldn't miss a shootin' star goin' by...
Passin' me by...
Goin' right by...
