Your Own Private Rainbow
(Markus Rill/Annika Fehling)

Come out of the shadows, step into the light
there’s no road signs to follow, no rules that apply
if you just take a little time and you open up your mind
you’ll be surprised
I know what you’ve been through, you feel life’s let you down
well, maybe I’ve been there, too, and look at me now
I may be scarred but I’m alive and if you look me in the eye
there’s more than just black and white

And it will all turn into color
it will all shake out in time
the different pieces of your life, from the lowest of low to the sublime
will sparkle and shine
just outside of the shadows you’ll find your own private rainbow

I don’t have advice for you, I’ve got my own fears and doubts
I won’t tell you what to do, you’ll figure it out
‘cause every day the world will spin, you just take it on and take it in
it’s a beautiful thing

And it will all turn into color
it will all shake out in time
just like orion in the sky in the deepest dark there’s something bright
and all your stars will align
just outside of the shadows you’ll find your own private rainbow

There’s a natural flow to things
no matter how hard the winter one day there’ll be a glorious spring
And it will all burst into color, it will all blossom in time
yes, it will all turn into color, it will all shake out in time

Like the red and the blue and the yellow and green
purple, magenta and aquamarine
like the stars in the sky, like day and like night
the good and the bad everything will align in color

Just outside of the shadows you’ll find your own private rainbow
