Chasing Rainbows

Chasing you is like chasing rainbows,
All of it just an illusion.
The closer I came the further you’d go
It just was such confusion

Chasing you was like chasing rainbows
There was never a pot of gold
No luck, no love – just wisdom
And a pain that can never be told.

Chasing you was like chasing rainbows
I was never going to win
When I moved your direction – you’d fade away
Moving like the wind again and again.

Chasing you was like chasing rainbows
Lots of fun is what we said
But after the scars of chasing this illusion…
I was safer chasing storms instead.
