You're always looking for the rainbow

So you can find the gold

Bring that your luck could pull you through

You're always looking for the rainbow, babe

So you can find the gold

And all the time it's right in front of you


You're always looking for the greener pastures 

On the other side

Hoping that your dreams will all come true

You're always looking for the greener pastures 

On the other side

And all the time they're right in front of you


Gypsy waggons leaving hear them singing ladidadida

Better run or you'll be left behind

Maybe somewhere ther's a strange young girl

You haven't met

Somewhere in the shadows of your mind


You're always looking for that paradise

You don't care whom you sacrifice

One day all your chances will be gone

That paradise is in storybooks 

and all you can do is look

and if you ever get there you'll be all alone
