Lyrics If You Want the Rainbow (You Must Have the Rain) - Fanny Brice

If You Want the Rainbow (You Must Have the Rain)

What does it matter
if rain comes your way
and raindrops patter along?
The rain descending
should not make you blue
The happy ending is waiting for youu.
Take your share of trouble,
face it and don’t complain.
If you want the rainbow,
you must have the rain.
Happiness comes double
after a little pain
If you want the rainbow,
you must have the rain.
What if your love affair should break up,
as they sometimes will
When you kiss and make up,
oh, oh boy what a thrill!
Sadness ends in gladness,
showers are not in vain
If you want the rainbow,
you must have the rain.
Look for brighter weather,
oh watch for the Sun again
If you want the rainbow,
then you must have the rain.
Pull yourself together,
whistle a happy strain
If you want the rainbow,
then you must have the rain.
If you want the rainbow, why, you just must have the rain.
