"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 s'posed to be...



"Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.



"Laa, da daa dee da daa daa,
La laa la la laa dee daa doo..."

"Readying to bury your father and your mother,
What did you think when you lost another?
I used to wonder why did you bother,
Distanced from one, blind to the other?

"Listen here my sister and my brother
What would you care if you lost the other?
I always wonder why did we bother,
Distanced from one, deaf to the other.

"Oh, oh, but sweetness follows



"It’s these little things, they can pull you under.
Live your life filled with joy and wonder.
I always knew this altogether thunder
Was lost in our little lives.

"Oh, oh, but sweetness follows.



"It’s these little things, they can pull you under.
Live your life filled with joy and thunder.
Yeah, yeah we were altogether
Lost in our little lives.



"Oh, oh, but sweetness follows."
-- R.E.M.
