Lyrics

I've traveled this whole world over and now I'm goin' down to the rainbow's end
From twilight till dawn trudging on and on on my way to the rainbow's end
I'm weary and tired but I don't care I'm goin' down to the rainbow's end
No friends no home just travelin' alone I'm on my way to the rainbow's end
They say there are treasures of silver and gold burried down by the rainbow's end
But the treasure I'll find will bring me real peace of mind
When we come to the rainbow's end
Down in the garden there's a little white gate which most dream folks always attent
And just inside there's a little path that leads towards the rainbow's end
And down at the end there's a sign that reads love that will never die
Now no one can travel out the path no one but you and i
How I wish the little gate will open and that you might walk with me
Down to the end of that rainbow to the sign on that old oak tree
And how I wish that your arms would hold me and that your lips might touch mine too
Cause I can't travel up that path with anyone else but you
Say we can only stay for just a minute and we must never go back there again
But we'd know the sign on that old oak tree and we could see the rainbow's end
Then we'd swing the little gate shot again while the morning glorys would creep
And all of the sign's not old rainbow we can have our hearts for to keep
For someone has waited there all alone so I know at the rainbow's end
How it feels to be pressed to an angel's breast when I come to the rainbow's end
