The rain wasn't made of water The snow didn't have a place in the sun So we slipped behind the rainbow And laid back till we had done And then the rain wasn't made of water And the snow didn't have a place in the sun So we slipped behind the rainbow And laid back till we had done Through northern lights on back streets I told the coachman "just drive me on It's the same old destination But a different world to sing upon" So he threw back his head and he counted I got out about five to nine And I waved at the stage door-keeper Said "mister, get me to the stage on time" And then the rain wasn't made of water And the snow didn't have a place in the sun So we slipped behind the rainbow And laid back till we had done I packed my ammunition Inside the crowd was shouting "encore" But I had a most funny feeling It wasn't me they were shouting for So when the tall dark lady smiled at me I said "oh baby let us go for a ride" And we came upon two drinks or four And popped them oh so neatly inside And then the rain wasn't made of water And the snow didn't have a place in the sun So we slipped behind the rainbow And laid back till we had done Let me pack you deep in my suitcase Oh there's sure to be room for two Or you can drive me to the airplane But don't let me catch those rainbow blues And then the rain wasn't made of water And the snow didn't have a place in the sun So we slipped behind the rainbow And laid back till we had done So then the rain wasn't made of water And the snow didn't have a place in the sun So we slipped behind the rainbow And laid back till we had done The rain wasn't made of water The snow didn't have a place in the sun The rain wasn't made of water The snow didn't have a place in the sun
