A Rainbow Ain't Nothin' But Colored Light
Splashed each other in baby baths
Our mamas used to, tell us
Almost got lost down by Rain Lily Pond
Made our way home, without a fuss
Ran together through hot August storms
Held your hand, in mine so tight
Chasing down that faraway rainbow
Finding love, counting colors of light
Beneath that ol’ willow tree
We imagined, and schemed
Whispering tales, revealing secrets
Confessing our, grownup dreams
Shared ourselves in quiet green fields
Alone on, sunny afternoons
Vowed to leave this quiet town when
School ended, come June
But the real world
Isn’t simple
Workadays
Quiet passing time
Woke one morning
To a note
You’d no longer
Be mine
Years later
Beneath the willow
I wondered if you
Thought of us
Or remembered me
Kiss your cheek?
And scratch our names
Forever in that tree?
A rainbow ain't, nothing but, colored light, or so I'm told
If all you find, at the end, is a pot of, fool's gold
Each morning I wake up without you
Miss the sun, in your eyes
At night I stare through my reflection
Hope to see you, in the moonlight
A rainbow ain't, nothing but, colored light, or so I'm told
If all you find, at the end, is a pot of, fool's gold
I was there when you’d fall
Do I cross your mind ever, at all?
Or am I just a bath playmate
From a long time ago?
A rainbow ain't, nothing but, colored light, or so I'm told
If all you find, at the end, is a pot of, fool's gold

You’d no longer
Be mine
A rainbow ain't
Nothing but
Colored light
Or so, I'm told
If all you find
At the end
Is a pot of
Fool's gold
Today in passing
A friend told me
You became a bride
Not long ago
Caught my breath
For a moment
Took a drive to that
Old willow
Spent time
In its shadow
Wondering if you
Thought of us
Or remembered me
Kiss your cheek?
And scratch our names
Forever in the tree?
