Story Behind The Song
As a writer I challenge myself to write about many things, this song was one of those exercises. On my way to the Milky Way with a rainbow on my shoulder, came to me one afternoon ... and I sat down and wrote the song. I like writing in many different styles and genres.

Lyrics
MilkyWay ©2011 Janet Steely
CH:
la la la la la la la la la
skippin over clover
On my way to the MilkyWay
With a rainbow on my shoulder.
V1:
When I think about you
When I see you smile
When I look into your eyes
My heart can fly beyond the skies
CH:
la la la la la la la la la
skippin over clover
On my way to the MilkyWay
With a rainbow on my shoulder.
V2:
Sunshine on my pillow
Moondust in my hair
Twinkling nights of stary skies
When I'm with you how time does fly ...
CH:
la la la la la la la la la
skippin over clover
On my way to the MilkyWay
With a rainbow on my shoulder.
Bridge:
Last night I dreamed that I could fly. Stand on my toes and touch the sky
CH:( start fading final chorus at third line as though flying away)
la la la la la la la la la
skippin over clover
On my way to the MilkyWay
With a rainbow on my shoulders.
On My way to the MilkyWay
