RAINBOW IN MY CLOUD

(Lyrics & Music by Barry Hope)

Verse One:

I never meant to love you
That was not part of the plan
Poetry and romance I don’t do
I guess I’m not that kind of man

But lately I’ve had these feelings
I’ve never had them before
There’s a pain in my heart when I see you
But when you leave it hurts even more

Chorus:

Just when I thought I was doing alright
Just when I thought I was winning the fight
You come floating into my life
Like a rainbow in a cloud

I thought that I was stronger than this
There’s nothing that I couldn’t resist
But there’s something about you I don’t know what it is
You’re a rainbow you’re a rainbow you’re a rainbow in my cloud

Verse Two:

I’ve never loved anybody
Nobody’s ever loved me
I’ve had a lot of friends I call ladies
And friends is how I like it to be

But something is happening inside me
Something that I can’t explain
I hear my heart beating fiercely
I feel both pleasure and pain

Chorus:

Just when I thought I was doing alright
Just when I thought I was winning the fight
You come floating into my life
Like a rainbow in a cloud

I thought that I was stronger than this
There’s nothing that I couldn’t resist
But there’s something about you I don’t know what it is
You’re a rainbow you’re a rainbow you’re a rainbow in my cloud

Bridge:

Maybe I should just give in
Letting love do its thing
Is it a cloud or a rainbow that I see
Either way it’s gonna rain on me

Chorus:

Just when I thought I was doing alright
Just when I thought I was winning the fight
You come floating into my life
Like a rainbow in a cloud

I thought that I was stronger than this
There’s nothing that I couldn’t resist
But there’s something about you I don’t know what it is
You’re a rainbow
You’re a rainbow
You’re a rainbow
You’re a rainbow
You’re a rainbow in my cloud
