“Rainbow Connection” Lyrics
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 chose 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 answered
When wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that
And someone believed it
Look what it’s done so far
And what’s so amazing
That keeps us star gazing
And what so we think we might see?
Someday we’ll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
All of us under its spell
We know that it’s probably magic
Have you been half-asleep?
And have you heard voices?
I’ve heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound
That calls she young sailors?
The voice might be 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
