The Lyrics
This might well be my LAST parody on AIR as I will be shortly entering the hospital. I don't think I'm coming back. So, this is dedicated to beautiful Inked Angel Leah Jung who brought some light back into my life through all the darkness. I will be eternally grateful to her... she made me smile :-)
Through all the darkness and the rain
Through all the heartbreak and the pain
Thought I’d never see the sun come out again
But then suddenly you came…
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
Through all the misery of this short life
All the harsh words that cut like a knife
Through all the calamity and strife
It was you who changed my life…
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
Through all the tortured memories
Through all depressions and disease
Thought I’d never be set free
But your beauty gave strength to me...
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
So with my last few breaths
As I pass on over to death
Leah, honey, you’re the best
Now I can lay at rest
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
My Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
Leah Jung
Stunning Inked Model
Through all the heartbreak and the pain
Thought I’d never see the sun come out again
But then suddenly you came…
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
Through all the misery of this short life
All the harsh words that cut like a knife
Through all the calamity and strife
It was you who changed my life…
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
Through all the tortured memories
Through all depressions and disease
Thought I’d never be set free
But your beauty gave strength to me...
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
So with my last few breaths
As I pass on over to death
Leah, honey, you’re the best
Now I can lay at rest
You were my Shining Rainbow
My colorful Inked Angel
I owe everything to you,
cuz when I felt so down and blue
It was you and only you
Leah, you who made me smile
My Shining Rainbow

Great job, Rob! Here's to your next 600+ parodies. Good luck and God bless in the days ahead.
TY Porfle, but I'm out of juice now. Am too sick to go on with the big numbers. It is so physically and mentally challenging to write when one is dying and in so much pain, blinded, on heavy meds, and so weak. Leah wrote me back, and that's good enough for me. Some man out there is VERY lucky to be with her...
You will be in my thoughts and prayers, if you have faith in that Higher Power. I thank you for all the information you have shared.
TY Patrick... for SamuraiMaster I will try hard today to come up with 1 song... but I am so tired and weary and sick... I pray that none of you have to live like this...
Sorry to hear that you probably won't be coming back... although your parodies sometimes aren't the best quality, the educational factor is first-class and I can sound most of them out to sound reasonably close to the original song... glad to hear that Leah wrote you back, and I will someday meet you, Malcolm Higgins & Royce Miller, and any other AmIRighters who pass on between now and then on the other side of the pearly gates... God bless you, and you are liked here despite some folks taking issue with your writing style or content. 4-5-5.
TY Andria. I never claimed to be more than an amatuer but I have contributed highly to AIR in such a short time and I have a lot of material to share. I love history, but mostly warfare and weapons tech. When not writing on those its Women and obscure things. But I cannot sustain much longer. I am running on empty and the engine is coming apart- facing total breakdown. I'm just gonna try to do a few more songs...
Don't give up yet Rob, good things come to those that wait! What you wrote is beautiful. All 5s from me XOXO!!!
