I'll Paint You a Rainbow

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

to brighten your heart when grey shadows fall

On a canvas of joy outlasting the years

With a brush of sweetness to dry 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 a rainbow that reaches so wide

Your sighs and sorrows will vanish inside

And studded deep in each of the different hues

Is a sweet memory fashioned especially for you.
