Why are there so many songs about rainbows
|
And what's on the other side?
|
Rainbows are visions but only illusions
|
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
|
|
Well, who said that every wish would be heard and answered
|
When wished on the morning star?
|
Well, somebody thought of that and someone believed it
|
Look what it's done so far
|
|
What's so amazing that keeps us star-gazing
|
And what do we think we might see?
|
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
|
The lovers, the dreamers and me
|
|
And all of us under its spell
|
We know that it's probably magic
|
|
(Instrumental)
|
|
Well, have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
|
I've heard them calling my name
|
And is this the sweet sound that called the young sailor?
|
The voice may be one and the same
|
|
But 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
|
The lovers, the dreamers and me
|
