If You Want The Rainbow

What does it matter if rain comes your way
 and raindrops patter along?
 The rain descending should not make you blue
 The happy ending is waiting for you
 Take your share of trouble, face it and don't complain
 If you want the rainbow, you must have the rain.
 Happiness comes double after a little pain
 If you want the rainbow, you must have the rain.
 What if your love affair should break up,
 as they sometimes will
 When you kiss and make up, boy what a thrill!
 Sadness ends in gladness, showers are not in vain
 If you want the rainbow, you must have the rain.
 Look for brighter weather, oh watch for the Sun again
 If you want the rainbow then you must have the rain.
 Pull yourself together, whistle a happy strain
 If you want the rainbow then you must have the rain.
 So if your lucky star deserts you, and if shadows fall
 Even though it hurts you, laugh through it all
 Be a cheerful loser, you have the world to gain
 If you want the rainbow, why, you just must have the rain.
