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

I know they're wrong wait and see

Someday we'll find it the rainbow connection

The lovers the dreamers and me

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 called the young sailors

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
