RAINBOW
Alex Bevan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wrap it in a special way
It's a rainbow up in the sky
With a small toke and a bottle of wine
You can sit right down
And watch the day roll by
Fallin' in love is like a promised land
As a rainbow with colored bands
You keep me searchin'
When's that gonna end?
I ain't ever gonna get there
If you won't let me be your friend
Then you'll come on over, eager to please
talkin' cheap and lovin' free about rainbows
I depend on you and exactly what I'd like to do
Is lie down and make love to you
Get yourself, lucky day
Wrap it in a special way
Rainbow, don't you know? That old rainbow
There's a lot of sunshine running kinda slowly
Then it's red, green, yellow, and blue
And there you go
Get yourself, lucky day
Wrap it in a special way
It's a rainbow shinin' up in the sky
With a small toke and a bottle of wine
You can sit right down
And let your head get high
Yeah sit down and let the day go by, by, by
Sit down
and let the day go by
Alex Bevan's "Rainbow" is about taking life's opportunities and enjoying them with someone you love. The song is about embracing the moment and enjoying the beauty of life. The opening lines encourage the listener to seize the day and celebrate it in a special way. The reference to a rainbow represents the beauty that can be found in life and the small pleasures that can be enjoyed with a simple toke and a bottle of wine.
The lyrics then move on to describe the experience of falling in love, which is likened to reaching a promised land. The rainbow is used as a metaphor once again to describe the journey of love with its many colored bands. The singer expresses his need for the other person, but also acknowledges that he can only pursue a relationship if he is allowed to be friends with her.
Towards the end of the song, the lyrics express the desire to lie down and make love, which is also heightened by the reference to the rainbow. The song ends with a repeated encouragement to enjoy the moment, let your head get high and let the day go by.
