Why are there so many songs about rainbows?   And what's on the other side   Rainbows are visions but only illusions   And rainbows have nothing to hide      So we've been told   And some choose to believe it   And 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 on the morning star   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      All of us under its 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   I think they're 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
