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



Who said that ev'ry 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 you think we might see

Someday we'll find it

The rainbow connection

The lovers, the dreamers and me



Coda:

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

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
