Written in 2006/2007 as my Music GCSE coursework. There would be lyrics, but I can't sing high enough and didn't manage to recruit a willing female friend. It could get re-recorded some day! In the meanwhile, sing along :P

Lyrics - from Malorie Blackman's "Knife Edge"

You bring a sweet embrace
And with the smile upon your face
You bring me grace, my rainbow child,
You bring me autumn days,
Turn my face to golden rays,
You bring me bliss, my rainbow child

CHORUS
And what was life before you?
And do you know how I adore you?
And it scares me how I feel,
All my past scars fade and heal,
When I hold my rainbow child.

You bring a quiet time,
Life has meaning, thoughts have rhyme,
You bring me peace, my rainbow child.
You bring down all my fences,
You invade my heart and senses,
You bring me hope, my rainbow child.

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Take a look, stop and stare,
Love is shining everywhere,
There is nothing left to fear,
I am with you, always near
And if this world should make me bleed
I'll remember you're all I need.

You bring the blinding light,
You bring the stars at night,
You bring me love, my rainbow child.
You're all the colours that I see,
And you mean everything to me.
Yes, you will always be my rainbow child.
