pretty as a rainbow after the rain

Harry Belafonte

She s pretty as a rainbow after the rain
She s softer than a kitten and sweeter than cane
She s fairer than the flowers that bloom on the hill
She s mine and I love her and I always will

The first time I saw her my first day in town
The strangest thing happen the world spinned around
At first she didn t see me so how was she to know
My heart almost stopped beating kept on repeating

She s pretty as a rainbow after the rain
She s softer than a kitten and sweeter than cane
She s fairer than the flowers that bloom on the hill
She s mine and I love her and I always will

Though we ve never spoken and we ve never met
The thrill of her beauty is hard to forget
But one day I ll tell her cause one day she ll be
The joy of my life when I make her my wife, cause

She s pretty as a rainbow after the rain
She s softer than a kitten and sweeter than cane
She s fairer than the flowers that bloom on the hill
She s mine and I love her and I always will
