The Rainbow After the Storm

[Soft Felt Piano Intro] Black clouds came rushing in from afar Wind lashed hard and bent the trees [Verse 1] That tempest snapped a few branches dry Soaked the whole road home My heart once let its tears fall too Thinking nothing bright remained [Pre-Chorus] Then the clouds parted for a little while Sun threw light on the corner of sky just shown [Chorus] rainbow after the storm Arching the sky like a quiet promise Rainbow after the tempest Reminds me that after dark comes bright [Verse 2] I stand and watch the floating band of color Counting each hue: red, orange, yellow, violet The tempest has passed but left behind Something fairer than a calm morning [Chorus] rainbow after the tempest Arching the sky like a quiet promise Rainbow after the tempest Reminds me that after dark comes bright [Bridge] Everyone goes through a few tempests Some fall, some rise again But the one who keeps a smile [Chorus] rainbow after the tempest Arching the sky like a quiet promise Rainbow after the tempest Reminds me that after dark comes bright [Outro] The tempest clears and the clouds drift far The rainbow still lingers in my eyes [Fade Out] [End]
