Ive been chasing rainbows all my life lyrics

Historic Sheet Music Collection

Lyrics

At the end of the rainbow there's happiness,
And to find it how often I've tried,
But my life is a race, just a wild goose chase,
And my dreams have all been denied.
Why have I always been a failure,
What can the reason be?
I wonder if the world's to blame,
I wonder if it could be me?

[Chorus]
I'm always chasing rainbows
Watching clouds drifting by.
My schemes are just like all my dreams,
Ending in the sky,
Some fellows look and find the sunshine,
I always look and find the rain,
Some fellows make a winning sometime,
I never even make a gain,
Believe me,
I'm always chasing rainbows,
Waiting to find a little blue bird in vain.

[Repeat Chorus]

There are things that I regret
Like being called a nervous wreck
And working up another sweat for you
There's nothing that I can do
For counterparts and bleeding hearts
And all the things that fall apart for you
I don't keep my secrets there
I hide them everywhere
I could deny
But I'll never realise
I'm just chasing rainbows
All the time
I could deny
But I'll never realise
I've been chasing rainbows
All my life

And then I missed my cue
Everybody had a laugh
And then went for an early bath
Did you
I don't keep my secrets there
I hide them everywhere
