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
