The Night-Time Rainbow
Listen to Laura ...
I looked up at the sky last night
And saw a night-time rainbow.
The air burped purple, green and blue
A swirly night-time rainbow.
Flashing colours-oozing-joyful
One amazing night-time rainbow.
We’re lucky people it was here
That Northern, glowing, shining, lightening,
One time,
Night-time rainbow.
And saw a night-time rainbow.
The air burped purple, green and blue
A swirly night-time rainbow.
Flashing colours-oozing-joyful
One amazing night-time rainbow.
We’re lucky people it was here
That Northern, glowing, shining, lightening,
One time,
Night-time rainbow.
