Music by Percy Wenrich, 1908 I've got several recordings, can't think of what all they are at the moment. |

11 Nov 03 - 12:21 PM (#1051714) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Come Be My Rainbow From: GUEST,Dale WELL, this is exasperating. Looks like they have put up safeguards against direct links. OK, HOME PAGE! Click on Audio, then search for Rainbow. I'm going to lunch, so I'm done. ~~ Excellent site, though. Look around while you are there. |

There he spied a pretty maiden of a copper shade, And as he gazed she drooped her head To hide her cheek with blushes red While these sweet words he said: CHORUS: Come be my Rainbow, my pretty Rainbow. my heart beguile. Give me a smile, once in a while. In rain or sunshine, my Rainbow, keep your love light aglow. I love you so, my sweet Rainbow. Then the rainbow shone out smiling from the summer sky, And when she saw this sign she sighed: "Now can't you see it's fate?" he cried. "Come love and be my happy bride." Brighter than the rainbow beamed the love-light in her eye And as they wandered home that night, Beneath the moonbeams silvery light Oft he sang with delight: CHORUS GL |

Right under the cover is the link to the next (first) page of the music, and continuing to click on the bottom link will eventually get you to all the pages. Besides, skipping the cover page means you'll miss some great art work at times. |

He does not sing this version for the second verse and I cannot find any information. I have listened carefully (English is not my first language) I do not understand much of what he sings ... Thank you a thousand times if you can help me. Martin |
