Shawn Colvin - When the Rainbow Comes lyrics

C'mon, pack your bags, clear the floor Let's step out through the open door Leave a note that says goodbye And build a new house down by the sea Get to the place we were meant to be And you'll know it when you smile Up at the window, searchin' the sky Lookin' for the rainbow and don't ask why I wanna see the rainbow come Hey, we'll be leaving on all sides, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh When the rainbow comes Na la la lalalala la la la lalalala When the rainbow comes Mr. Postman, look and see If there's a message in your bag for me Could be a bomb or it could be a letter It don't matter, it can only get better Hey, Mr. Postman, look and see If there's a message in your bag for me You know it's been such a long, long time Since I could laugh at this world of mine, yeah, yeah, yeah Slippin' and slidin' around in your head Be-bop-a-lula then, baby, you're dead So c'mon, make a bright new day I need a prayer here, need a blessing Cast an eye back as you run And turn around, boy, see the rainbow come Hey, we'll be leavin' on all sides When the rainbow comes When the rainbow comes Oh, see the world from all sides When the rainbow comes When the rainbow comes La la la lalalala, la la la lalalala La la la, when the rainbow comes La la la lalalala, la la la lalalala When the rainbow comes
