What a special time I had singing this song with Dad this morning and in the past. We've always shared a love of the Muppets and this has always been one of our favorite songs.
However, Dad, you'll do much better if you have the words, so here they are. Just click on the title and the song will begin. Minimize the music and sing along with these words. And, who knows, it might become a favorite of others too.
Written by Paul Williams and used by Kermit the Frog of The Muppets
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.
La, la la, La, la la la, La Laa, la la, La, La la laaaaaaa
That has always been one of my favorite songs. Jen says the girls have really gotten into the Muppets thanks to netflix. We plan to spend part of the summer watching the Muppet movies over at the old folks home.
ReplyDeleteJennifer has introduced the girls to the Muppets. We plan to spend a rainy or hot afternoon over at the old folks home watching the Muppet Movie together this summer.
