| I’ve traveled this whole world over
|
| And now I’m goin' down to the rainbow’s end
|
| From twilight till dawn trudging on and on On my way to the rainbow’s end.
|
| I’m weary and tired but I don’t care
|
| I’m goin' down to the rainbow’s end
|
| No friends, no home, just travelin' alone
|
| I’m on my way to the rainbow’s end.
|
| They say there are treasures of silver and gold
|
| Burried down by the rainbow’s end
|
| But the treasure I’ll find will bring me real peace of mind
|
| When we come to the rainbow’s end.
|
| Down in the garden there’s a little white gate
|
| Which most dream folks always attend
|
| And just inside there’s a little path
|
| That leads towards the rainbow’s end
|
| And down at the end there’s a sign
|
| That reads love that will never die
|
| Now no one can travel out the path
|
| No one but you and I How I wish the little gate will open
|
| And that you might walk with me Down to the end of that rainbow
|
| To the sign on that old oak tree.
|
| And how I wish that your arms would hold me And that your lips might touch mine too
|
| 'Cause I can’t travel up that path
|
| With anyone else but you.
|
| Say we can only stay for just a minute
|
| And we must never go back there again
|
| But we’d know the sign on that old oak tree
|
| And we could see the rainbow’s end.
|
| Then we’d swing the little gate shut again
|
| While the morning glorys would creep
|
| And all of the sign’s not old rainbow
|
| We can have our hearts for to keep.
|
| For someone has waited there all alone
|
| So I know at the rainbow’s end
|
| How it feels to be pressed to an angel’s breast
|
| When I come to the rainbow’s end… |
