Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows?

And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions, they're only illusions

And rainbows have nothing to hide

So we've been told and some chose to believe it

But I know they're wrong, wait and see

Someday we'll find it, the Rainbow Connection

The lovers, the dreamers and me

Who said that every wish would be heard and answered?

When wished on the morning star

Somebody thought of that and someone believed it

And look what it's done so far

What's so amazing, that keeps us star gazing?

What do we think we might see?

Someday we'll find it, the Rainbow Connection

The lovers, the dreamers and me

Have you been half asleep, and have you heard voices?

I've heard them calling my name

And are these the sweet sounds that called the young sailors?

I think they're one and the same

I've heard it too many times to ignore it

There's something that I'm supposed to be

Someday we'll find it, the Rainbow Connection

The lovers, the dreamers and me
