~THE RAINBOW CONNECTION~ Words & Music by: Paul Williams & Kenny Ascher
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 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 heard voices? I've heard them calling my name Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors I know it's 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 de da da do La la da da da de da do
