I'm saving my money to buy you a rainbow
A rainbow, to fit on your finger
After I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon

When we go walking side by side in the moonlight
We'll count the stars as we go strolling by
Maybe one day we'll own those beautiful diamonds
That glisten like the teardrops from your eyes

You know how I feel on a moment like this
When hand-in-hand, when we reminisce
Your eyes seem to glow when you whisper low
Oh, I really love you

I'm saving my money to buy you a rainbow
A rainbow (A rainbow), to fit on your finger
After I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon

After I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon
(Rainbow, rainbow, rainbow)
