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   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   And wished on the morning star   Somebody thought of it and somebody believed in it   And look what it's done so far      What's so amazing that it keeps us star gazing   And what do they think we might see?   Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection   The lovers, the dreamers and me      All of us under it's spell   We know that it's probably magic      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 sailors?   The voice might be one and the same      I've heard it too many times to ignore it   It's something I'm suppose to be   Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection   The lovers, the dreamers and me
