Billy Bragg Chasing Rainbows lyrics

The wheels have come off again
And the fault is all mine
And there was I thinking
We were doing just fine.

But it hurts me so to hear you say we'd be
Better off apart,
Please don't let my complacent mind
Belie my loving heart.

You've shot me down again
From out of the blue
As there was something
That I was supposed to do
Well there's just no way that every day
I'll reach your high benchmark
But don't let my complacent mind
Belie my loving heart.


I know you think if I just tried
We would never fight at all
But I know there will still be days into which some rain must fall
So I'll do my best to meet the test
But darling don't forget
If you go chasing rainbows
Then you're bound to end up getting wet.

So I'll do my best to meet the test,
But darling don't forget
If you go chasing rainbows
Then you're bound to end up getting wet.
If you go chasing rainbows
You're bound to end up getting wet.
