The Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
& what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions.
Rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we've been told & some choose to believe it.
I know they're wrong, wait & see.
Someday we'll find it,
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, & me.

Who said that every wish would be heard & answered,
When wished on the morning star?
Someone thought of that,
& someone believed it.
Look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
& what do we think we might see?

Someday we'll find it,

The rainbow connection

The lovers, the dreamers, & me.

All of us under its spell,

We know that it's probably magic

Have 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?

The voice might be one & the same.

I've heard it too many times to ignore it,

It's something I'm supposed to be.

Someday we'll find it,

The rainbow connection.

The lovers, the dreamers & me.
