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 every wish would be heard and answered

When wished on the morning star?

Somebody thought of that, and someone believеd it

Look what it's done so far

What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing

And what do we think we might see?

Somеday 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?

The voice might be one and the same

I've heard it too many times to ignore it

It's something that I'm s'posed to be

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection

The lovers, the dreamers, and me

La da da di da da ooh

La da da da la di da ooh
