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 
All of us under its spell 
We know that it's probably magic 
Who said that every wish would be heard and answered 
When wished on a morning star? 
Somebody thought of it 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, or 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 
Something that I'm supposed to be 
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection 
The lovers, the dreamers, and me. la la la. . .
