Day after day
I must face a world of strangers
where I don't belong;
I'm not that strong.
It's nice to know
that there's someone I can turn to
who will always care;
you're always there.
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
but I won't last a day without you.
So many times
when the city seems to be
without a fiendly face,
a lonely place,
it's nice to know
that you'll be there if I need you,
and you'll always smile;
it's all worth while.
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
but I won't last a day without you.
Touch me and I end up singing.
Troubles seem to up and disappear.
You touch me with the love you're bringing.
I can't really lose when you're near.
(when you're near my love.)
If all my friends
have forgotten half their promises,
they're not unkind,
just hard to find.
One look at you
and I know that I could learn
to live without the rest,
I've found the best.
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
but I won't last a day without you.
When there's no getting over that rainbow,
when my smallest of dreams won't come true,
I can take all the madness the world has to give,
but I won't last a day
without you.
