You've let me stay,

'Cause it will not last forever.

But time is gonna change.

But now I need the rest of you.”

But before you do I want you to know, that I

And I hope that you find love along the way.
But most of all,
I wish you'd stay.”

That you've given me.
The memories are all in my mind.
And now that we've come
To the end of our rainbow,

Three times a lady.”
