i’ll paint you a rainbow

                                   

                                                    I’ll paint you a rainbow to hang on the wall,

                                                 to brighten your heart when the gray shadows fall.

                                                     On a canvas of joy outlasting the years,

                                                with a soft brush of sweetness to dry all your tears.

                                                    I’ll paint you a rainbow with colors of smiles

                                                      That glow with sincerity over the miles.

                                                   On a palette of words I will tenderly blend

                                                    Tones into treasures of sunlight and wind.

                                                  I’ll paint you a rainbow that reaches so wide,

                                                Your sights and your sorrows will vanish inside,

                                                  And deep in the center of each different hue,

                                                  A memory fashioned especially for you.

                                                    So lift up your eyes, for suspended above,

                                                    A rainbow designed by the fingers of love…
