You’re always looking for the rainbow

videoclip of this song here:
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.
