John D Boswell reading rainbow remixed in your imagination

Select language to translate this lyric

One of the best inventions ever was the book.
A book lets you zoom through time and space.
But don't bother packing, you can stay in one place.
Whether you head north, south, east or west
A book can be your passport
From your own neighborhood to the craters of the moon
In your imagination
When you read a good book, you bring the book to life
When you read a good book, you are the actor
A book lets you zoom through time and space
But don't bother packing, you can stay in one place.
Zoom zoom through time and space, but you don't have to take my word for it.
There are stories, everywhere you look
If you look in the right way
New castles to build, mysteries to be solved
The answer is in a book
Believe it or not, this is a book
Big or little, it doesn't matter
It's what is inside that counts
I love maps. All kids of maps
Each one tells me something different about the world
There's a map for just about any place you're interested in going
Even the littlest idea can end up as something big
All of these books started out as an idea
And look where they ended up
A book lets you zoom through time and space
But don't bother packing, you can stay in one place
Zoom zoom through time and space, but you don't have to take my word for it.
Inventing takes imagination
How about you? If you could invent anything, what would it be?
Shoes where you can walk on the walls
Pocket-sized time machine
Automatic dog walker
Technology that makes kids in charge of the world
A machine that can clean up my room
You can be the expert by picking up a book
It's up to you to pick it off the shelf
It's up to you to bring it to life
An idea has to start here or here
You can bring a book to life in your imagination
You can be the expert by picking up a book
It's up to you to bring it to life
A book lets you zoom to the craters of the moon
You bring a book to life in your imagination
Zoom through time and space, in your imagination
There are stories everywhere you look, if you look in the right way
New castles to build, mysteries to be solved
The answer is in a book
You can be the expert by picking up a book
There are stories everywhere you look, if you look in the right way
New castles to build, mysteries to be solved
You can be the expert, in your imagination
