the rainbow connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows,
and whats on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, they’re only illusions,
Rainbows have nothing to hide

So we’ve been told and some choose 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 its 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
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
