I saw a rainbow, beautiful rainbow
Then it faded away
I saw our dreams go, below zero
Till the wind just blew them away
Electric storms light up our lives
Then the calm arrives
And the colours shine down softly from the sky
Tell me why do rainbows always have to die
I felt the ocean, move my emotion
The waves rolled in so gently
Blue sea was calling as I was falling
Into a void of ecstasy
I tried to swim against my tide
I tried to drown my fears inside
I was desperate to reach the other side
But when I looked up I saw the rainbow die
We thought the stars would always shine
Together till the end of time
I thought that you'd be mine forever more and...
I saw a rainbow, beautiful rainbow
But it faded away
I saw our dreams go below zero
Till the wind just blew them away
Electric storms light up our lives
Then the calm arrives
Why do lovers always have to cry?
And tell me why do rainbows always have to die?
Why do lovers always say goodbye?
And tell me why do rainbows always have to die?
I saw a rainbow, beautiful rainbow
Why do rainbows always have to die?
Then it faded away
I saw our dreams go, below zero
Till the wind just blew them away
Electric storms light up our lives
Then the calm arrives
And the colours shine down softly from the sky
Tell me why do rainbows always have to die
I felt the ocean, move my emotion
The waves rolled in so gently
Blue sea was calling as I was falling
Into a void of ecstasy
I tried to swim against my tide
I tried to drown my fears inside
I was desperate to reach the other side
But when I looked up I saw the rainbow die
We thought the stars would always shine
Together till the end of time
I thought that you'd be mine forever more and...
I saw a rainbow, beautiful rainbow
But it faded away
I saw our dreams go below zero
Till the wind just blew them away
Electric storms light up our lives
Then the calm arrives
Why do lovers always have to cry?
And tell me why do rainbows always have to die?
Why do lovers always say goodbye?
And tell me why do rainbows always have to die?
I saw a rainbow, beautiful rainbow
Why do rainbows always have to die?
