Colours of the Rainbow
Sarah Brightman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The colours of the rainbow will show the world to you,
the colours of the rainbow are fading into blue

Losing the future, and the colours of the rainbow
You shouldn't keep it secret, just wear your inside out.
You can trust me, I'll take you to the field of dreams.

The colours of the rainbow will show the world to you,
the colours of the rainbow are fading into blue.
The colours of the rainbow, promise what you want to do,
the colours of the rainbow, they all belong to you.

Lie across the flowers and everybody smiles at you
Drifting past the hours drowning in big blue

You can trust me, it's always gonna feel like this.

The colours of the rainbow will show the world to you,
the colours of the rainbow are fading into blue.
The colours of the rainbow, promise what you want to do,
the colours of the rainbow, they all belong to you.

One world, one life in the colours of the rainbow.
One world, one time in the colours of the rainbow.

The colours of the rainbow will show the world to you,
the colours of the rainbow, they all belong to you.

One world, one life in the colours of the rainbow.
One world, one time in the colours of the rainbow.
One world, one life in the colours of the rainbow.
One world, one time in the colours of the rainbow.

The rainbow
The rainbow
The rainbow




The rainbow
The rainbow
