In the evening sunset, when all the world is through, Just look for me and love me, and I’ll be close to you. It won’t be forever, the day will come and then My Loving arms will hold you, when we meet again. Time for us to part now, we won’t say goodbye, Look for me in rainbows, shining in the sky.
