The Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
and what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide.


So we've been told and some choose to believe it;
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 answer when wish on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that,
and someone believed it;
Look what it's done so far


What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing,
and what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it;
The Rainbow Connection;
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
All of us under it's spell;
We know that it's probably magic.


Have you been half a-sleep
and have you hard voices?
I heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voices might be one and the same.


I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's something that I supposed to be.
Someday we'll find it;
The Rainbow Connection;
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
La...da da dee da da do
La la da da da de da do.
