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 Look what it's done so far And what's so amazing that keeps us stargazing And what do you think we might see? Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers, and me 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 in 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

Listen as the wind blows From across the great divide Voices trapped in yearning Memories trapped in time The night is my companion And solitude my guide Would I spend forever here And not be satisfied And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear Through this world I've stumbled So many times betrayed Trying to find an honest word To find the truth enslaved Oh you speak to me in riddles and You speak to me in rhymes My body aches to breathe your breath Your words keep me alive And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear Into this night I wander It's morning that I dread Another day of knowing of The path I fear to tread Oh into the sea of waking dreams I follow without pride 'Cause nothing stands between us here And I won't be denied And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear I hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd wipe away the tears Just close your eyes

Time here, all but means nothing Just shadows that move 'cross the wall They keep me company, but they don't ask of me They don't say nothing at all And I need just a little more silence And I need just a little more time But you send your thieves to me Silently stalking me Dragging me into your war Would you give me no choice in this? I know you can't resist Trying to re-open a sore Leave me be, I don't want to argue I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone And if I agree, well, it's just to appease you Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for You see love, a tight thorny thread That you spin in a circle of gold You have me to hold me A token for all to see Captured to be yours alone And I need just a little more silence And I just need a little more time The courage to pull away There will be hell to pay Deeper you cut to the bone Leave me be, I don't want to argue I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone And if I agree, well, it's just to appease you 'Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for Time here, all but means nothing Just shadows that move across the wall They keep me company But they don't ask of me They don't say nothing at all So leave me be, I don't want to argue I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone And if I agree, well, it's just to appease you Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for
