The Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows,
and what's on the other side?
Rainbows are vision
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 answered
when wished one the morning star?
Somebody thought of that
and someone believe it.
Look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
And what do we think we might see?
Some day 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.
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailor?
The voice might be one and the same.
I'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.
