Rainbow

by Rick Thompson - Not entered

Why do rainbows shine,
When the storms are near,
Don't they even mind,
They cause me pain and tears,

It seems just days since we,
Were so in love to stay,
There was a light that shone,
In my heart both night and day,

And now I brace myself,
For all tomorrows,
You’re just a memory now,
Heaven is on it's way,

Rainbows remind me of,
Your hair and smiles as they,
Captured my heart and love,
And made me want to stay,

Why can't love be real,
What I really need to say,
Is that only you made me feel,
Loved forever and a day,

But now I brace myself,
For one tomorrow,
You never loved me,
Heaven's on it's way,

Would you still be mine,
If I had told you dear,
Your pure love's so fine,
With you I had no fear,

You walked right out,
Without looking back,
You didn't even shout,
You were on your way,

Where is the love,
I thought would save,
When the rain does fall,
Why must rainbows play,

And I brace myself,
There's no tomorrow,
I feel angels gather,
Heaven's here today.
