Imagining the rainbow
Trying to fit it in the sense of things
That might have been
Looking for the green flash
Hitting milliseconds just before the sun goes in

Bon Voyage
When you find the one
Don't let her go
Like you're letting me go

Bon Voyage
After all this time you'd think
We'd know
Why are you letting me go

A magic in the moonlight
In a bar beside the ocean
Where we used to meet
Caught up in our cicumstance
We spin out wheels just
Waiting for the string to break

I see your face in windows on the Seine
I'm still sitting in a cafe where
You said you'd wait
Like some romantic moment on the screen
You'd come running through that door
And then you're gone again

Bon Voyage
When you find the one
Don't let her go
Like you're letting me go

Bon Voyage
After all this time you'd think
We'd know
Why are you letting me go

Kim Carnes (born July 20, 1945) is an American singer-songwriter. Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, she began her career as a songwriter in the 1960s, writing for other artists while performing in local clubs and working as a session background singer with the famed Waters sisters (featured in the documentary 20 Feet from Stardom). After she signed her first publishing deal with Jimmy Bowen, she released her debut album Rest on Me in 1972. Carnes' self-titled second album primarily contained self-penned songs, including her first charting single “You’re a Part of Me”, which reached No. 35 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart in 1975. In the following year, Carnes released Sailin', which featured “Love Comes from Unexpected Places”. The song won the American Song Festival and the award for Best Composition at the Tokyo Song Festival in 1976.
