Lovely Lyrics: Rainbow Connection

I love rainbows.

I've got them all over my house and all over my office because colorful rainbows bring me joy.

The idea of the Rainbow Bridge brings me comfort because I can think of no happier thought than the dream that one day I'll be reunited with my beloved dogs.

I've loved this song for as long as I can remember and although I shared this pic in my post yesterday, these ears are a perfect match for these words!

Rainbow Connection

from The Muppet Movie

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
but 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
what 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 fast 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
