Never Blame The Rainbows For The Rain

The Moody Blues · Keys Of The Kingdom [1991]

Sailing along

The river of time,

Adrift on dreams

Through midnight chimes,

Positively frozen

Crystal waterfalls,

The mountain of hope

Is there to be climbed,

The sea of serenity

Is rightfully mine.

Step on to the water

Knowing what is true.

Never blame the rainbows for the rain

And learn to forget the memories

That cause you pain.

The last whispered wish of age

Is to live it all again

So, never blame the rainbows for the rain.



The beat of my heart,

The rhythm of love,

The earth that's beneath us,

The heavens above

I can hear forever

Calling out to me.

The changes we go through

Are making me strong.

The shelter of friendship

Is where we belong.

Look into the future

Knowing what we see.



Never blame the rainbows for the rain

And learn to forget the memories

That cause you pain.

The last whispered wish of age

Is to live it all again

So, never blame the rainbows for the rain.



The whirlpool of doubt

Can spin you around.

The wave of emotion

Takes you up,

Pulls you down

Leaving far behind us

Sweet young passion's spray.



Never blame the rainbows for the rain

And learn to forget the memories

That cause you pain.

The last whispered wish of age

Is to live it all again

So, never blame the rainbows,

Never blame the rainbows for the rain
