Chasing Rainbows
Chasing Dreams Beyond Rainbows
Lyrics
A long, long time ago
A distant past
When I used to chase rainbows
In the past, pursuing unattainable dreams
I thought there was a pot of gold
Believing in the existence of great rewards
When I got to the end
Upon reaching the supposed destination
But there were many people there
Encountering many others
And I said, "What are you doing here?"
Questioning their presence
They said they were looking for the end of the rainbow
Discovering they are also seeking the end of the rainbow
At the end of the rainbow
Realizing the end of the rainbow is elusive
Turns out it's not somewhere
It's not a specific location
Look around, it's everywhere
It's present everywhere if one pays attention
For anyone who cares
Accessible for those who genuinely care
This world is full of fancy dreams
World filled with extravagant aspirations
And money can get you anything
Belief that wealth can fulfill any desire
But that's not really true
Contrast with reality, emphasizing illusion
It's just make-believe
Fictitious nature of such dreams
As you walk down the streets of broken dreams
Strolling through a place of shattered hopes
Where some have lost everything
Some experiencing total loss
While others are still looking for
Others still seeking the mythical reward
That easy pot of gold
Persistent pursuit of an easy success
At the end of the rainbow
Realization that the rainbow's end is elusive
Turns out it's not somewhere
Not confined to a specific place
Look around, it's everywhere
Evident everywhere for those observant
For anyone who cares
Accessible to those who genuinely care
Some people will go to any means
People resorting to extreme measures
To capture a shallow dream
Chasing superficial aspirations
In this world of make-believe
In a world collectively imagined
That we all believe is true
A shared belief in illusions
When you get there, there's no place to go
Upon reaching, nowhere else to go
Just a lot of I-told-you-so's
Faced with skepticism and regret
So take this love with you when you go
Carry love when leaving for the end of the rainbow
To the end of the rainbow
At the end of the rainbow
Recognition that the rainbow's end is elusive
Turns out it's not somewhere
Not confined to a specific place
Look around, it's everywhere
Evident everywhere for those observant
For anyone who cares
Accessible to those who genuinely care
At the end of the rainbow
Realization that the rainbow's end is elusive
Turns out it's not somewhere
Not confined to a specific place
Look around, it's everywhere
Evident everywhere for those observant
For anyone who cares
Accessible to those who genuinely care
