Lyrics

She Brakes For Rainbows

[Verse 1]

Here comes Brenda

Brenda Holiday

Through she hasn't that much to say

[Chorus]

She knows where the rain goes

She brakes

She brakes for rainbows

[Post-Chorus]

Fly Brenda

Fly Brenda

[Verse 2]

Window in the weather

Flowers in her hair

Footprints on the ceiling

How did they get there

[Chorus]

She knows where the rain goes

She brakes

She brakes for rainbows

She knows where the rain goes

She brakes

She brakes for rainbows

She knows where the rain goes

She brakes

She brakes for rainbows

[Outro]

She brakes

She brakes for rainbows

She knows where the rain goes
