After the clouds disappear After the rainbow has gone I'm left with a song in my ear The melody is lingering on How come I have to explain Music is worth all the pain After the rain washes down After all the fog burns away Will I see the sun coming 'round? Closer and closer each day How come I have to explain People are worth all the pain I just want to see the love in your eyes After the storm has passed you and gone When you're dreaming of how it can be It doesn't work to pretend Let me tell you what happened to me Just to get to the end I needed a friend After the rainbow had gone It's so sad losing a friend But the memories are lingering on How come I have to explain Children are worth all the pain I just want to see the love in your eyes After the storm has passed you and gone I just want to see the love in your eyes After the storm has passed you and gone
