simple thing to chase after a dream

trouble is when you catch them, they don’t always gleam

everything from A to Z easy as 123

just ain’t always that easy to do it every day

forgot where I placed them yesterday



run so fast and you can’t keep up

falling behind while you’re falling down

simple thing to chase after a dream

trouble is when you catch them, they can make you scream

you know you can’t go back the way you came

so then it’s back to the shadows



so now you’re running just to stay ahead

ain’t no gold at the end of a rainbow

when you look over your shoulder

you know you can’t go back the way you came

so then it’s back to the shadows

the things that you told her

now nothing will ever be the same



simple thing to chase after a dream

trouble is when you catch them they ain’t what they seem

so now you’re running just to stay ahead

brand new something shiny and red

ain’t no gold at the end of a rainbow

greedy men never know

powerful men never know



better stay out of the kitchen if you can’t stand the heat

greedy men never know

watch them in their moment of defeat

powerful men never know

ain’t no gold at the end of a rainbow
