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
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 that and someone believed it -- look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing 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 hear them calling my name.
Could it be the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voice may be one and the same.
Well I've heard it too many times to ignore it
I it's somethin' that I'm s'posed to be.
And someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.
