I saw her reflection in the shadow of the sun
Listening to the cadence of a dying drummers' drum
She knew I was coming nearer, she said no but I did not hear her
Rainbow woman, rainbow, rainbow woman, woman
Rainbow woman
When I heard her laughter I was more than some surprised
In her smile was sadness there was laughter in her eyes
Self respect is absent in a lonely man's mirage
Love is sometimes given in a salty tear corsage
Make the Gods that made her claim her, she comes and goes and so I named her
Rainbow woman, rainbow, rainbow woman, woman
Rainbow woman
Listening to the cadence of a dying drummers' drum
She knew I was coming nearer, she said no but I did not hear her
Rainbow woman, rainbow, rainbow woman, woman
Rainbow woman
When I heard her laughter I was more than some surprised
In her smile was sadness there was laughter in her eyes
Self respect is absent in a lonely man's mirage
Love is sometimes given in a salty tear corsage
Make the Gods that made her claim her, she comes and goes and so I named her
Rainbow woman, rainbow, rainbow woman, woman
Rainbow woman
