Chasing rainbows

Chasing rainbows

When all hope just seems to fade,
When the darkness throws more shade,
When your heart can't catch a break,
Negativity you can't shake...no more


Bridge
Please look to me for comfort
Let me bring you comfort tonight

Chorus
Keep chasing rainbows...
Keep chasing rainbows...in the rain
Keep chasing rainbows
A hopeful distraction...from the pain
Keep chasing rainbows


When you pray a solemn prayer,
for another breath of air
When you only want your share,
of a hope that leads you to... somewhere


Bridge
Please look to me for comfort
Let me bring you comfort tonight

Chorus
Keep chasing rainbows...
Keep chasing rainbows...in the rain
Keep chasing rainbows
A hopeful distraction...from the pain
Keep chasing rainbows


When tomorrow never comes,
When you feel you've come undone
When you've lost what you had won
Now you're searching for someone...who cares.

Bridge
Please look to me for comfort
Let me bring you comfort tonight

Chorus
Keep chasing rainbows...
Keep chasing rainbows...in the rain
Keep chasing rainbows
A gentle distraction...from the pain

keep chasing rainbows
keep chasing rainbows repeat

Hey big John nice song. Chasing rainbows in the rain to ease the pain. Not a bad refrain. I recently wrote my first rispetto with a similar theme

Dear John, your tender, expressive lyric is beautiful, uplifting and inspiring. The spiritual vibe runs smoothly through your verse to comfort and smooth the angst and anguish of heart and mind and spirit. The reassurance offered in your brilliant poem is like a soulful, lyrical hug. Warmest wishes, my dear friend.. ~Susan

Hi John, I hope you are well.. Your lyrics beautifully encapsulate the human experience of facing adversity and finding strength in the pursuit of hope and resilience. It offers a message of comfort and encouragement to keep moving forward, even when the path seems uncertain.
