Rainbow, Look me up look me down,
Rainbow, You were fun to have around 
I was dreamin’,
Of the love I had to share,
Never thinkin’,
You were here you were there 
 
Not a word, not a sound, could see or even feel the ground 
A pot of gold, I was sold, by the way you let it fly 

Rainbow, Look me up look me down, 
Rainbow, You were fun to have around 
I was dreamin’,
Of the love I had to share,
Never thinkin’,
You were here you were there 
 
Rainbow, Look me up look me down,
Rainbow, You were fun to have around 
Now I’m changing, for the better for the day, 
Feel like singing all the colours you convey 

Come on home, Keep me warm, And love me till the new day’s born 
And I pray, You will stay, For ever in my eyes
