I saw her reflection in the shadow of the sun
Listening to the cadence of a dying drummers' drum
Chorus:
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
Chorus + instrumental verse and chorus
Self respect is absent in a lonely man's mirage
Love is sometimes given in a salty tear corsage
Chorus#2:
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 (repeat)
