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
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
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
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
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
