The Rainbow Connection - Carpenters

Why are there so many

Songs about rainbows?

And what’s on the other side

Rainbows have visions

And 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 says that ev’ry wish

Would be heard and answered

When wished on a 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 it’s 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

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la
