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 believed it,
and 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'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.
--Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher
No idea. I don't know why I have this song in my planner - I can't remember putting it there. I can say that I for years nursed a serious crush on Kermit the Frog. He's wonderful! He's a leader, he's kind, he's calm, he's a dreamer, he loves the crazy Miss Piggy, and he's deadpan and hilarious. It's possible I looked up the lyrics after getting the crush. I do like it, and it does have the strain of "I'm special" that is embarassingly permeating my planner. Aw, Kermie. He's so nice.
