Rainbow Connection Lyrics

Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
What's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hideSo 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 meWho 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 farWhat'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 meAll of us under its spell
We know that it's probably magicHave you been half-asleep, have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
It may be one and the sameI've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm supposed to be

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
