Kentucky Rainbows

I’m looking for Kentucky rainbows
I think I see them in your eyes
But have seen Kentucky rainbows
Fade and die, fade and die
First man I ever loved was just like Kentucky rain
Comin' down slow and easy, warm and tender
Then he turned away from me and I’ve never been the same
Wherever I go, I remember, I still remember
I have seen Kentucky rainbows
Like a promise in the sky
Lying with his arms around me
While I laughed, while I cried
I’m looking for Kentucky rainbows
I think I see them in your eyes
But have seen Kentucky rainbows
Fade and die, fade and die
Got caught in a summer storm, outside of Louisville
While he held me close and he filled my soul with wonder
I whispered, «Please don’t leave me, say you never will»
But I lost his answer in the thunder, I only heard the thunder
I’m looking for Kentucky rainbows
I think I see them in your eyes
But have seen Kentucky rainbows
Fade and die, fade and die
I’m looking for Kentucky rainbows
