Galileo fell in love
As a Galilean would.
And he wondered what in Heaven
Who invented such a joy?
But the question got the better of his scientific mind.
And to his blind and dying days, he looked up high and often sighed
And sometimes cried.
Who puts the rainbow in the sky?
Who lights the stars at night?
Who dreamt up someone so divine,
Someone like you and made them mine?
Love can make you ask some funny questions now and then.
But just remember the alternatives.
For I remember when I was lonely,
And unhappy and my lips were cold as ice.
But you kissed me and good Heavens,
Now I'm here in paradise.
So if I'm ever not kissing you or looking in your eyes,
I won't be blind and I won't cry.
I'll look up high and gladly sigh.
And thank the guy
Who puts the rainbow in the sky,
Who lights the stars at night,
Who dreamt up someone so divine.
Someone like you and made them mine.
Someone like you and made them mine.
