Bonnie If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you, and share with you its beauty, on the days you're feeling blue. If I could build a mountain, you could call your very own; A place to find serenity, a place to be alone. If I could take your troubles I would toss them in the sea,
but all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me. I cannot build a mountain or catch a rainbow fair,
but let me be what I know best, a friend who's always there.
We will miss Steve. Joanne & Gomer
