Name: For The Rainbow
Duration: P00H03M27S
Description: Six years ago, I wrote a song for the England football team. It was a pop song, and thirty years too late. I promised myself that I would only write another one if I had a more meaningful idea. This is that song. It's a song of unity and solidarity in the hope that what we share is stronger than what divides us. This one's for the rainbow.

lyrics

For The Rainbow

This one's for the rainbow
This one's for you
This one's for everyone
We'll make it through

Yes, we love our culture
We are what we've become
We can look upon our history
And see the rights and wrongs

It's not easy learning how to change
Some people will never know
But everything good takes time
And together we will grow

This one's for the rainbow,
This one's for you
This one's for everyone
We'll make it through

You won't always be the hero
Sometimes we fail the test
Sometimes it takes the worst of times
To bring out the best

You've got to feel for your neighbour
We are together in life
And there are different kinds of love
But everybody's got the right

So stand with your family
And stand with your friends
Stand up when it matters
Stay strong till the end

This one's for the rainbow,
This one's for you
This one's for everyone
We'll make it through

We'll make it through
