Loggins, Kenny - Rainbow Connection Lyrics






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 ev'ry 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?
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 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 le la la loo
La la la la le la la loo

    No matter how  grown I get I still listen to this, I love the pure innocence of it, its added to my collection of winding down  relax songs.

  12. E.... M....

    I am a nanny of twins. I have listen to this song since they were 5 weeks old and now they are 8 months. Every time I play this song I rock them and they always fall a sleep... It's like they know this is the nap time song...so sweet!

  13. K.... ....

    First rainbow connection Then Your Heart Will Lead You Home

  14. S.... A....

    So beautiful, thinking it's from a kid show

  15. R.... D....

    I REMEMBER ROCKING MY BABY BOY TO SLEEP TO THIS SONG !!!! DAMN DUST IN MY EYES.

  16. R.... L....

    the best version song by Kenny Loggins 🎹🎵👍

  17. L.... D....

    The rhythm of this song is imprinted in my brain from early childhood bedtime songs. I just listened to it now at 21 years old. And it was almost cathartic.

  18. J.... D....

    When you make a connection,then and only then,will you see RAINBOWS!!!!

  19. k.... w....

    When my children were young this was their bedtime music. Tonight I attended my granddaughters school concert and they killed this. Amazing when 45 kids voices all blend into a beautiful harmony. The tears started and I had to step out for a moment to fix my leaking eyes.

  20. D.... M....

    Kenny Loggins is soooooooooooooooooo underrated. Love him.

  21. m.... h....

    best version.......

  22. J.... L....

    The tears 😹 love it, now officially my lullaby

  23. C.... ....

    THIS ONE, RETURN TO POOH CORNER (my fav) AND ALL THE PRETTY LITTLE PONIES (my 2nd fav)WERE THE SONGS MY DAD SANG TO ME WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL

  24. V.... H....

    Best lullaby album ever!!!! I'm 54 n love this.
    Sublime

    Sweet dreams
    💫🌙🌟🌈

  25. b.... c....

    This is the most beautiful song ever.

  26. M.... S....

    The voices calling sailors was to their death. When I Pray up God's, Promises in His Reignbows? Nobody's going to die, unless, in a ,
    'little death', as the French
    considered, Climaxing with another instantanelly... God Bless how He built us to...every nerve placed so perfectly to feel the way I
    and my lover's connection
    was meant to be! Let It Be, yes, Mary Ann is my name ...

  27. K.... S....

    ❤❤❤❤

  28. J.... D....

    Thank you so much for this, although it hurts my heart when I hear it, it somehow brings me peace.  Thank you.

    J.... D....

    Jeanette De Jesus agree

    J.... D....

  29. F.... ....

    Great version. Even Kenny likes Kermits version best. Beautiful song.

  30. T.... B....

    all the dreamers up and died; now we're left with schemers

    T.... B....

    That's not true; I'm still here. I'm still a dreamer, and although I may be broken, I'm still trying to put a little bit of light back into the world. I hope you face a good day!

    T.... B....

    :D Me too

    T.... B....

    NO SHIt man where are my rainbows 🌈 at?

  31. G.... A....

    I’m not trying to be rude, but it sounds weird when you spell it “poo”, as the character’s name is “Pooh”. Just saying

  48. T.... ....

    Is it the sweet sound that calls the young SAILORS(siren's song)?Thank you for posting this beautiful rendition,however The correct lyrics are important,to the message of this song.Blessings

  49. d.... ....

    I love this song <3

  50. 1.... ....

    Awesome song

  51. M.... C....

    Aww so many memories. Thanks for uploading this!

  52. R.... B....

    Great rendition by Kenny Loggins (as usual).
    Karen Carpenter also has a great version.

  53. F.... D....

    I like Kermit's and Willie's better

    F.... D....

    Frank D. Daniel Kermit's is the best, willie is real good to

  54. J.... C....

    A mistake is a mistake. No need to berate, but no need to coddle, either.

  55. M.... C....

    I like the revivals! I agree with you completely &I would even add that on the same album his rewrite of pooh corner is better than the first. Not only in verse, but if you go back and listen to him sing this song early in his career (which I loved), the way he sings it in later years as "return to pooh corner" far exceeds, at least in my mind, the original!!! I love that he still speaks to a wide audience. Perhaps I'll see some of you at the Saratoga Mountain Winery in August when he performs!

  56. T.... M....

    This is really awesome song

  57. R.... F....

    SO BEAUTIFUL

  58. 1.... ....

    WOW very pretty!!! one of the best rendition`s I`ve heard Thank`s well done!

  59. R.... ....

    I heard it today on the Radio while driving. It stuck all day with me... in my mind and in my heart. Such a very beautiful dreamy music. A tribute to Jim Henson....R.I.P.

  60. C.... C....

    ConHolio ~ Thank you for the gift of this. I had the tape but it has been missing since our last move (11 yrs ago) I'm still hoping to find it stashed in some unusual spot. ;) Makes me think of the innocence of childhood and also makes me think of my Mom. Sadly, both are gone. :'(

    It made me a little sad for a few minutes, but more than that... it made me smile and remember. Thanks for that! ♥

    Blessings & Joyous Howls,
    Camille

  61. G.... C....

    I love this song, makes me cry every time, don't we all miss our childhoods?

  91. K.... A....

    Love Kenny Loggins and all he has done to create a wonderful world for all of us. This song was originally created by Karen Carpenter as a way to introduce her brothers use of a child's piano. Very sweet song.

  92. R.... G....

    @Whiteknight24601
    Oh my god.. I don't even know you and started crying when your comment. I cannot imagine what a beautiful experience that must have been. I would have loved to have danced to this song with my father at any time. Good for you and your father. I would have been sobbing the whole time LOL!

  93. a.... c....

    @Whiteknight24601...why is this song so beautiful...no matter who sings it???
