Sign of the rainbow


When I got back to my hometown
I saw the ghosts of yesterday
And my godmother bless her soul
She still lives down this way
Remember when I was just a kid
And she would tell a story

Of the rainbow
Rainbow

I come to you with an empty heart
It's locked and I've lost the key
Now she was old and almost blind
But she sees more than you or me
With her cane pointed towards the sky
She said I'll know if you've heard
The silence between the words

Of the rainbow
Rainbow
No one knows
Where the rainbow goes

Walk down the long road
Your back against the wind
Where you can lose yourself again
I've been down the old road
But that was long ago
I want you to walk with me
When the rains come again
And shine this light over you

Rainbow
That's the sign of the rainbow

Walk on down the hard road
That's buried in your soul
And you can feel the light within
Go upon the mountain
That's painted in the sky
I want you to ride with me
When the rains come again
And I will carry you home

Walkin to the rainbow
The halo of the sun
And you will dance the song of light
I could see forever
High upon the hill
I want you to walk with me
When the rains come again
And shine this light over you
Rainbow
Rainbow

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Band è stato un gruppo rock canadese-statunitense formatosi a Toronto nel 1967 e scioltosi nel 1976 per poi riformarsi nel 1983 fino al 1999. La formazione originale comprendeva Robbie Robertson (chitarra), Richard Manuel, Garth Hudson, Rick Danko e Levon Helm. Considerati uno dei gruppi più influenti della musica rock americana, The Band ha raggiunto la fama negli anni '70 grazie a un sound folk-rock caratterizzato da arrangiamenti orchestrali complessi e testi poetici. Il loro album di debutto, *Music from Big Pink* (1968), è considerato un classico del genere e ha contribuito a definire il suono della musica americana degli anni '70. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di The Band ricordiamo "The Weight", "Up on Cripple Creek" e "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". La band ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui Bob Dylan, con cui hanno suonato in tour negli anni '60 e '70. La morte di Richard Manuel nel 1980 e di Levon Helm nel 2012 hanno segnato la fine di un'epoca per The Band.
