On the day I was born, said me father, said he,
"I've an elegant legacy waiting for ye.
'tis a rhyme for your lips
And a song for your heart
To sing it whenever the world falls apart.
Chorus
Look, look , look to the rainbow.
Follow it over the hill and the stream.
Look, look , look to the rainbow.
Follow a fellow who follows a dream.
Follow a fellow, follow a fellow,
Follow a fellow who follows a dream.
'Twas a sumptuos gift to bequeath to a child,
And the lure of that song kept me feet running wild,
For you'll never grow old and you'll never stand still,
With the whip-poor-will's song just beyond the next hill.
Chorus ...
So I bundled my heart and I roamed the world free,
To the east with the lark, to the west with the sea,
And I searched all the hills and I scanned all the skies
Till I found it at last in my own true love's eyes.
Chorus ...
You can get by with just , , , and (using instead of ) if you insist
that "less is more.
