A Rainbow In The Wind
When you see my face
Do you find that you
Can see copper skin?
Or a rainbow in the wind?
When I take you home
To see my family, can you
Look past the broken English
And hear a rainbow in the wind?
When I catch you by surprise
And find an odd look in those eyes,
Is it because you’ve stopped believing
In a rainbow in the wind?
When I lay by you at night
Does our future give you fright?
Thinking how our child might look
Like a rainbow in the wind?
Is the difference just too great,
The life impossible to create?
Or do you see as I
See that rainbow in the wind?
For this world is far too small
To judge everyone and all
On the colours of their skin
When there’s a rainbow in the wind.
When you see my face
Do you find that you
Can see copper skin?
Or a rainbow in the wind?
When I take you home
To see my family, can you
Look past the broken English
And hear a rainbow in the wind?
When I catch you by surprise
And find an odd look in those eyes,
Is it because you’ve stopped believing
In a rainbow in the wind?
When I lay by you at night
Does our future give you fright?
Thinking how our child might look
Like a rainbow in the wind?
Is the difference just too great,
The life impossible to create?
Or do you see as I
See that rainbow in the wind?
For this world is far too small
To judge everyone and all
On the colours of their skin
When there’s a rainbow in the wind.
