Rainbow
Joan Thiele Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're my rainbow
You switched on my mind
The colors which I need
When you look right in the sky
Like after a storm you gave color
To my whole world

And I don't fully understand
The power of the light
'Cause it's so strong
Now I feel blind
But oh, I still see
As you

And I'll take care of your colors
Don't tell me you don't know
How to care of your shining skin
And I'll take care of your colors
Don't tell me you don't know
How to care of your shining skin


Cause tonight you will be my rainbow
Cause tonight, yes you will be my rainbow

You're a melody
That whispers in my mind
Who's not have been flooding golden
[?] in the sky
And harmony is always tuned
With my whole world

I'll take care of your colors
Don't tell me you don't know
How to care of your shining skin
And I'll take care of your colors
Don't tell me you don't know
How to care of your shining skin


Cause tonight you will be my rainbow
Cause tonight, yes you will be my rainbow


I'll take care of your colors
Don't tell me you don't know
I'll take care of your shining skin
Don't tell me you don't know

You're my rainbow
You switched on my mind




The colors which I need
When you look right in the sky
