Rainbow
2Face Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ever since I left you
I have been to hell and I am back
And my baby, I
I wanna give you all my body and soul
And I want to give you the keys to all that I got
Cos you are my star, you are my rainbow
Cos now I don't see rainbows, everywhere I go
It never used to be so (be so)
Oh now my heart is cold
Now it's a big cloud (big cloud)
Hovering over my soul
And i won't shout (won't shout)
Don't wanna be on mute no more (be on mute no more)
Ever since I left you girl
It's like I fell off
Now I can't get back online since I logged off
I am feeling all alone
I don't feel free no more
I am a prisoner for you like I am in handcuffs
Now I wonder what I was thinking when I took off
Now i realize that your lips and body so soft
Girl i am not too proud to beg
I will kneel and kiss your legs
Cos I am fed up
Ever since I left you
I have been to hell and I am back
And my baby, I
I wanna give you all my body and soul
Infact I want to give you the keys to all that I got
Cos you are my star, you are my rainbow
Life without you
Is just a rip-off
All them other girls, them a bloody knockoff
I was a jerk and i feel with remorse
Girl i need some cleansing baby
Help me detox
I want you back
Girl, just don't say no
Cos if you do
Murder will be the case they gave your heart
Cos there's no life without you
And I cannot swim up to the shore
I want back into your life
I am giving you heads up
And you know say people break up and make up
Girl you got to understand
That with you I want to stand forever and ever and ever
You must to know that life is uncertain
And as a natural man, that's why I effed up
Girl, see I don't know what else to say
Just accept my humble apology
Cos
Ever since I left you
I have been to hell and I am back
And my baby, I
I wanna give you all my body and soul
Infact I want to give you the keys to all that I got
Cos you are my star, you are my rainbow
(You are my star girl)
eh Chineke me
Girl, I am down on my knees
Accept my apologies
E no easy
Now i realize, it should be you and I
You and I .Iiiiiiiiii
Ever since I left you girl
Ever since I left you (left you girl)
Ever since I left you girl
The keys, keys, take it take it take it take it take it girl
Ever since I left you (you are my rainbow)
I have been to hell and I am back
you are my rainbow
you are my rainbow
you are my rainbow
Infact I want to give you the keys to all that I got




you are my rainbow (my rainbow)
you are my rainbow.
