There's a shower of rain Yet the sun still shines There must be a rainbow Somewhere An old man nods in his chair He came from nowhere And went nowhere else Journeying all the way Now he journeys through time Down the aching years Things that he's seen and done Some good and wondrous And some of them terrible An old man nods in his chair Travelling Behind closed eyes All the things he's seen and done The people he's known All the things he's said Within his nodding head Tears pour down his face Down the canyons grooved by time And yet he smiles Gently and softly There must be a rainbow Somewhere By Phil Roberts

THERE MUST BE A RAINBOW
There's a shower of rain Yet the sun still shines There must be a rainbow Somewhere An old man nods in his chair He came from nowhere And went nowhere else Journeying all the way Now he journeys through time Down the aching years Things that he's seen and done Some good and wondrous And some of them terrible An old man nods in his chair Travelling Behind closed eyes All the things he's seen and done The people he's known All the things he's said Within his nodding head Tears pour down his face Down the canyons grooved by time And yet he smiles Gently and softly There must be a rainbow Somewhere By Phil Roberts
I thought I'd give this another airing.
