Rainbow
E.L.F Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lady pick your feet up
Come and lay beside me
Show me things I've never known before
Seven days of wonder
Come and pray beside me

I guess I'm through believing
No one's waiting for me
Think I woke up living on my dreams
You black eyed husky woman
Come and lay beside me
Black eyed husky woman
Come and stay beside me

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow

Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout women so I walked right up to her
Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout women so I talked right up to her

I said I ain't got no time to waste
So do the things you're told
Give me seven days of wonder
Come and stay beside me

Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout women so I walked right up to her
Adam and the Devil got me thinking
'Bout women so I talked right up to her

And I said I ain't got no time to waste
So do the things you're told, yeah
Seven days of wonder
Come and stay beside me

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow
Not the same as you and I

She ain't just another rainbow
Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow
Not the same as you and I

She ain't just another rainbow




Silver lining in the sky
She ain't just another rainbow

Such an amazing singer I was fortunate to see him 3 times once with rainbow and twice with sabbath you are truly missed

Napoleon Solo

Twice w/ Sabbath, 3 times solo, and again with Heaven & Hell. I'd trade all of that to have seen him even once with Rainbow. You are lucky.

Frank Cortes

If you actually realize, Dio has a thing for “rainbows” and “sailing”. 🌈⛵️

Check out the lyrics of this song and the lyrics in Wonderworld from this band Elf. Check out the lyrics of Stargazer and Long Live Rock N Roll from the band Rainbow. Check out the lyrics of The Sign Of The Southern Cross from the band Black Sabbath. Check out the lyrics of sooo many Dio songs from his band Dio. 😂

Edgar Gutiérrez

Que nostalgiaaaa por favor, Dio, enorme, su leyenda jamás será borrada
