"Look To The Rainbow" lyrics
(originally from "Finian's Rainbow" musical)
On the day I was born
Said my 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
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow it over the hill
And the stream
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
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 earth
And I scanned all the skies
And I found it at last
In my own true love's eyes
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow it over the hill
And the stream
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
Follow the fellow
Follow the fellow
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
Said my 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
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow it over the hill
And the stream
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
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 earth
And I scanned all the skies
And I found it at last
In my own true love's eyes
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow it over the hill
And the stream
Look, look
Look to the rainbow
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
Follow the fellow
Follow the fellow
Follow the fellow
Who follows a dream
