Wishing the rainbow

It’s been so long
You’ve been away
Still miss you more
Than words can say

There’s now a cloud
Above my head
Hope you can’t see
The tears I shed

Some days it’s hard
To get along
You know I’m trying
To be strong

I miss your laugh
The sound so dear
The way you joked
Your constant cheer

If I could have
Just one more day
I beg you darling
Please, please stay

I’d wish you back
But not in pain
I’d wish the rainbow
Not the rain

One day I know
We’ll meet again
But it’s so hard
To wait til then
