Kamikochi Lyrics

I Am Oak Kamikochi

I saw a rainbow
I saw a rainbow
Except it was not bowed
It was straight as an arrow
Hanging in the sky

Down by the trail
Leading to a crystal clear river
Bending under the bridge
Looking up at it
I felt a question rise
"Is this a normal thing here"

Judging by the crowd
That keeps on gathering
It's not a common thing

We're at Myojin Pond
Named for the deities
That roam the mountains
And the river too

Is this what it is?
Are these those nature gods
Showing a sign of life?

I saw a rainbow except it was not bowed
It was straight as an arrow
Floating in the sky

An embodiment of this land
If ever I saw one
What I saw was
An unusual rainbow
Showing all of its colors
And the colors are familiar
Showing all of its colors
In an unfamiliar way

I saw a rainbow
Except it was not bowed
It was straight as an arrow
Painted across the sky
