Where Have You Been
Where Have You Been?
Rainbow, rainbow where have you been?
Will we ever, ever see you again?
High in sky where you seem to soar
As I stare at you from my front door.
What there must be is a cloud burst
This is the thing that happens first
From background which is dark and gray
Dangerous for me when outside I play.
Sharp lightening could happen any time
And then in thunder will begin to chime
All of us desperately it does scare
Hearing loud, booming sound everywhere.
What a beautiful arch it will be (Golden if in St. Louis)
Which God has just made for you and me
It skipped on by so I hit the sack
In my dreams, rainbow returned and came back.
