The Greatest Discovery (Live From The Rainbow Theatre)

[Verse 1]

Peering out of tiny eyes

The grubby hands that gripped the rail

Wiped the window clean of frost

As the morning air laid on the latch

[Verse 2]

A whistle awakened someone there

Next door to the nursery just down the hall

A strange new sound you never heard before

A strange new sound that makes boys explore

[Verse 3]

Tread neat so small those little feet

Amid the morning his small heart beats

So much excitement yesterday

That must be rewarded, must be displayed

[Chorus]

Large hands lift him through the air

Excited eyes contain him there

The eyes of those he loves and knows

But what's this extra bed just here?

[Verse 4]

His puzzled head tipped to one side

Amazement swims in those bright green eyes

Glancing down upon this thing

That make strange sounds, strange sounds that sing

[Verse 5]

In those silent happy seconds

That surround the sound of this event

A parent's smile is made in moments

They have made for you a friend

[Chorus]

And all you ever learned from them

Until you grew much older

Did not compare with when they said

This is your brand new brother

This is your brand new brother

This is your brand new brother
