Look To The Rainbow

Petula Clark


On the day I was born, 
Said my father, said he. 
I've an an elegant legacy 
Waitin' 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. 
Follow the fellow, 
Follow the fellow, 
Follow the fellow 
Who follows a dream. 

'Twas a sumptuous 
To bequeath to a child. 
Oh the lure of that song 
Kept her feet funnin' wild. 
For you never grow old 
And you never stand still, 
With whippoorwills singin' 
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 the fellow 
Who follows a dream. 
Follow the fellow, 
Follow the fellow, 
Follow the fellow 
Who follows a dream.
