Answer To Rainbow At Midnight - Ernest Tubb

I saw a rainbow at midnight

Way out on the ocean so blue

And there was your face in this rainbow

Guiding me back home to you

All through the war I was praying

For the day that you’d be by my side

But now all my dreams have been shattered

It seems that my rainbow has lied

For when I knocked on your door dear

They said with a new love you’d gone

And that you two were so happy

And for me to just leave you alone

Oh how my poor heart did break dear

For I suffered so much for so long

And you knew just how much I loved you

Oh how could you treat me so wrong

Now as I gaze at your heaven

It seems I just can’t bear the pain

Yet somehow each night I keep searching

For a rainbow I’ll never see again
