Before You Find Your Rainbow

Before You Find Your Rainbow.
.
Over the years
I’ve shed tears of joy and tears of pain
There’s been times I was face down in the gutter
But I rose again 
I had my moments
And the one thing that kept me sane
Is when I realised
Before you find your rainbow
First you must have some rain
.
Happiness has always been my friend
But like my women
It comes and go’s 
It tends to leave me in the end
But I’m not bitter any more
Because there is one thing
Of that I’m sure
.
It’s something that keeps me sane
Before find your rainbow
You have to have some rain
.
They say life is what you make it
But sometimes it’s out of our hands
I often here it
But they don’t seem to understand
.
Who knows what tomorrow brings
It could be anything
And I’ll take it
As long as I have another day
And survive…..
.
I said once and I’ll say it again
Before find your rainbow
You need to have some rain…..
.
