Lyrics Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes

Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows?

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

Look what it's done so far

What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing

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, have you heard voices?

I've heard them calling my name

Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?

It may 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
