In the still of the nightAs I gaze out of my windowAt the moon in its flightMy thoughts all stray, stray to youIn the still of the nightWhile the world lies in slumberOh the times without numberWhen I say to youDo you love meJust like I love youAre you my life to beThat dream come trueOr will this dream of mineWill it fade way out of sightJust like that moon growing dimWay out on the rim of the hillIn the still of the night Do you love meJust like I love youAre you my life to beThat dream come trueOr will this dream of mineWill it fade way out of sightJust like that moon growing dimWay out on the rim of the hillIn the still of the night

Here I go again I hear those trumpets blow again All aglow again  taking a chance on love Here I slide again About to take that ride again Starry eyed again taking a chance on love I thought the cards were a frame-up I never would try But now I'm taking the game up And the ace of hearts is high Things are mending nowI see a rainbow blending nowWe l have our happy ending now Taking a chance on love. Here I go again I hear those trumpets blow again All aglow again  taking a chance on love Here I slide again About to take that ride again Starry eyed again taking a chance on love I thought the cards were a frame-up I never would try But now I'm taking the game up And the ace of hearts is high Things are mending nowI see a rainbow blending nowWe l have our happy ending now Taking a chance on love. I thought the cards were a frame-up I never would try But now I'm taking the game up And the ace of hearts is high Things are mending nowI see a rainbow blending nowWe l have our happy ending now Taking a chance on love We l have our happy ending now Taking a chance on love

I used to dream that I'd discover
The perfect lover someday
I knew I'd recognize him
If ever he came 'round my way
I always used to fancy then
He'd be one of those god-like kind of men
With a giant brain and a noble head
Like the heroes bold in the books I read

But along came Bill
Who's not the type at all
You'ld meet him on the street and never notice him
His form and face
His manly grace
Are not the kind that you would find in a statue

And I can't explain
It's surely not his brain that makes me thrill
I love him because he's wonderful
Because he's just my Bill

[Instrumental break]

He's just my Bill
An ordinary boy
He hasn't got a thing that I can brag about
And yet to be
Upon his knee
So comfy and roomy, seems natural to me

And I can't explain
It's surely not his brain that makes me thrill
I love him because he's...

I don't know...

Because he's just my Bill

I won't dance, don't ask me I won't dance, don't ask me I won't dance, this year, with you My heart won't let my feet do things they should do You know what?, you're lovely You know what?, so lovely But, oh, what you do to me I'm like an ocean wave that's bumped on the shore I feel so absolutely stumped on the floor When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle 'specially when you do the Continental But this feeling isn't purely mental For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos and that's why I won't dance, why should I? I won't dance, how could I? I won't dance, merci beaucoup I know that music leads the way to romance, So if I hold you in arms I won't dance When you dance, you're charming and you're gentle 'specially when you do the Continental But this feeling isn't purely mental For, heaven rest us, I am not asbestos and that's why I won't dance, why should I? I won't dance, how could I? I won't dance, merci beaucoup I know that music leads the way to romance, So if I hold you in arms I won't dance -

Too late now to forget your smile
The way we cling when we danced awhile
Too late now to forget and go on to someone new

Too late now to forget your voice
The way one word makes my heart rejoice
Too late now to imagine myself away from you

All the things we've done together
I relive when we're apart
All the tender fun together
Stays on in my heart

How could I ever close the door
And be the same as I was before?
Darling, no, no I can't anymore
It's too late now

[Instrumental break]

All the things we have done together
I relive when we're apart
All the tender fun together
Stays on in my heart

How could I ever close the door
And be the same as I was before?
Darling, no, no I can't anymore
It's too late now

Too late now

Do I love you, do I?
Doesn't one and one make two?
Do I love you, do I?
Does July need a sky of blue?

Would I miss you, would I
If you ever should go away?
If she sun should desert the day,
What would life be?

Will I leave you never?
Could the ocean leave the shore?
Will I worship you forever?
Isn't heaven forever more?

Do I love you, do I?
Oh, my dear, it's so easy to see
Don't you know I do?
Don't I show you I do,
Just as you love me?

Would I miss you, would I
If you ever should go away?
If she sun should desert the day,
What would life be?

Will I leave you never?
Could the ocean leave the shore?
Will I worship you forever?
Isn't heaven forever more?

Do I love you, do I?
Oh, my dear, it's so easy to see
Don't you know I do?
Don't I show you I do,
Just as you love me?

I should care, I should go around weeping
I should care, I should go without sleeping
Strangely enough, I sleep well
′cept for a dream or two
But then I count my sheep well
Funny how sheep can lull you to sleep

So I should care, I should let it upset me
I should care but it just doesn′t get me
Maybe I won′t find someone as lovely as you
But I should care and I do



I should care but it just doesn′t get me
Maybe I won′t find someone as lovely as you
But I should care and I do

And I do

love me or leave me and let me be lonely
You won't believe me but I love you only
I'd rather be lonley than happy
With somebody else

You might find the night time
The right time for kissing
Night time is my time for just reminiscing
Regretting instead of forgetting
With somebody else

There'll be no one unless that someone is you
I intended to be independently blue
I want you love, don't wanna borrow
Have it today to give back tomorrow
Your love is my love
There's no love for nobody else

Dancing in the dark 'til the tune ends
We're dancing in the dark and it soon ends
We're waltzing in the wonder of why we're here
Time hurries by, we're here and gone

Looking for the light of a new love
To brighten up the night, I have you love
And we can face the music together
Dancing in the dark

What- though love is old
What- though song is old
Through them we can be young

Hear this heart of mine
Make yours part of mine
Dear one, tell me that we're one

Dancing in the dark 'til the tune ends
We're dancing in the dark and it soon ends
We're waltzing in the wonder of why we're here
Time hurries by, we're here and gone

Looking for the light of a new love
To brighten up the night, I have you love
And we can face the music together
Dancing in the dark

Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true Some day I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me Somewhere over the rainbow Blue birds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then oh why can't I If happy little blue birds fly Beyond the rainbow Why oh why can't I

No more blues, I`m goin` back home
No, no more blues
I promise no more to roam
Home is where the heart is
The funny part is
My heart`s been right there all along
No more tears and no more sighs
And no more fears I`ll say no more good byes
If travel beckons me I swear I`m gonna refuse
I`m gonna settle down An` there`ll be no more blues
Every day while I am far away
My thoughts turn homeward
Forever homeward
I travelled `round the world In search of happiness
But all my happiness, I found was in my home town
No more blues, I`m goin` back home
No, no more blues I`m through with all my wanderin`
Now I`ll settle down and live my life
And build a home and find a man When we settle down
There`ll be no more blues Nothing but happiness
When we settle down There`ll be no more blues

Once I Walked in the Sun

You told me I was the one

Who made this life so it is Worth the sorrow


You said you felt the same

You reached out and whispered my name

Promising me tomorrow


All you left me is a song

I sing it now that you've pone

At least love in the songs lasts forever

Music only survives in the melody we're alive


Feeling it all together

Living inside a song



When we made love

What a perfect world we made together

When we made love

How I wished that life went on and on


Once I Walked in the Sun

Once I Walked in the Sun

I feel the light until my life is done

Lovers dance by the sea

And they're always you and me

And music soft as the night falls around us

Hope you're watching the stars

And the moonlight falls whrere you are

One time the music found us

One time we made a song

Heaven, I'm in heaven
and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven, I'm in heaven
and the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Oh, I love to climb a mountain
and reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much as
dancing cheek to cheek

Oh, I love to go out fishing
in a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much as
dancing cheek to cheek

Dance with me
I want my arms about you
The charms about you
will carry me through

To heaven, I'm in heaven
And my hear beats so that I can't hardly speak.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek.
When we're out together dancinging cheek to cheek

Heaven, I'm in heaven
and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
cheek to cheek

Heaven, I'm in heaven
and the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek

Oh, I love to climb a mountain
and reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me half as much as
dancing cheek to cheek

Oh, I love to go out fishing
in a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much as
dancing cheek to cheek

Dance with me
I want my arms about you
The charms about you
will carry me through


To heaven, I'm in heaven
And my hear beats so that I can‘t hardly speak.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek.
When we're out together When we're out together When we're out together danceing danceing danceing cheek to cheek ~~~~~~~~~~

I've had bad dreams too many times.
To think that they don't mean much any more.
Fine times have gone and left my sad home.
Friends who once cared just walked out my door.

Love has no pride, when I call out your name.
Love has no pride, when there's no one left to blame.
I'd give anything to see you again.

I've been alone too many nights.
To think that you could come back again.
But I've heard you talk, 'She's crazy to stay.'
But this love hurts me so, I don't care what you say.

Love has no pride, when I call out your name.
Love has no pride, when there's no one left to blame.
I'd give anything to see you again.

bridge:

If I could buy your love, I'd truly try, my friend.
And if I could pray, my prayer would never end.
But if you want me to beg, I'll fall down on my knees.
Asking for you to come back.
I'd be pleading for you to come back.
Beggin’ for you to come back to me.

Love has no pride, when I call out your name.
Love has no pride, when there's no one but myself to blame.
I'd give anything to see you again.

Yes, I'd give anything to see you again.

Somewhere, over the rainbow,
way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
skies are bule,
and the dreams that you dare
to
dream really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
and make up
where the clouds are far
behind me
Where troubles melt
like lemon drops,
away above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere, over the rainbow,
bulebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then - oh, why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds
fly beyond the rainbow
why oh why can't I?

I'm through with love I'll never fall again
Said adieu, to love, don't ever call again
For I must have you or no one
And so I'm through with love

I've locked my heart, I'll keep my feelings there
I have stopped my heart, with icy frigid air
And I need to care for no one
And so I'm through with love

Why did you lead me to think you could care
You didn't need me, for you had your share
Of slaves around you, to hand you and swear
With deep emotion, devotion to you

Goodbye to spring and all it meant to me
It can never bring the things that used to be
For I must have you or no one
And so I'm through with love

Why did you lead me, to think you could care
You didn't need me, for you had your share
Of slaves around you, to hand you and swear
With deep emotion, devotion to you

Goodbye to spring and all it meant to me
It can never bring the things that used to be
For I must have you or no one
And so I'm through with love

I'm through, I'm through,
Baby cuz I can't have you
I'm through with love

If a picture paints a thousand words
Then why can't I paint you
The words will never show
The you I've come to know

If a face could launch a thousand ships
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you
You're all that's left me to

And when my love for life is running dry
You come and pour yourself on me

If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you tomorrow and today
Beside you all the way

If the world should stop revolving spinning
Slowly down to die
I'd spend the end with you
And when the world was through

Then one by one the stars would all go out
Then you and I would simply fly away

Just before our love got lost you said
"I am as constant as a northern star"
And I said, "Constantly in the darkness
Where's that at? If you want me I'll be in the bar"

On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada, oh Canada
With your face sketched on it twice

Oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
And I could drink a case of you, my darling
And I would still be on my feet, I would still be on my feet

Oh, I am a lonely painter, I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil and I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember the time you told me, you said, "Love is touching souls"
Well surely you touched mine 'cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time

Oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
So bitter, bitter and sweet
And I could drink a case of you, my darling
And I would still be on my feet, I would still be on my feet

I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours
She knew your life, she knew your devils and your deeds
And she said, "Go to him, stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed"

Oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
So bitter and so sweet
And I could drink a case of you, my darling
And I would still be on my feet, I would still be on my feet

This is my first affair so please be kind
Handle my heart with care, oh, please be kind
This is all so grand my dreams are on parade
If you'll just understand they'll never ever fade

So tell me your love's sincere oh please be kind
Tell me I needn't fear, oh, please be kind
For if you leave me dear
I know my heart will lose its mind
If you love me, please be kind

Smooth road, clear day
Why am I the only onetraveling this way
How strange the road to love should be so easy
Can there be a detour ahead

Wake up, slow down
Before you crash and break your heart gullable clown
You fool you're heading in the wrong direction
Can't you see the detour ahead

The farther you travel
The harder to unravel
The web he spins around you
Turn back while there's time
Can't you see the dangerous signs
Sot shoulders surround you

Smooth road clear night
Oh lucky me that suddenly I saw the light
I'm heading back away from all this trouble
Smooth road, smooth road
No detour ahead

Wish I knew
Why I'm so in love with you
No one else in this world will do
Darling please save your love for me

Run away
If I were wise I'd run away
But like a fool I stay
And pray you'll aave your love for me

I can feel it
Even when you're not here
Can't conceal it
I really love you my dear
And though I know no good
Can come from loving you
I can't do a thing I'm so in love with you

So darling
Help me please
Have mercy on a fool like me
I'm so unwise but still I plead
Darling please save you love for me

I can feel it
Even when you're not here
Can't conceal it
I really love you my dear
And though I know no good
Can come from loving you
I can't do a thing I'm so in love with you

So darling help me please
Have mercy on a fool like me
I know I'm lost but stll I plead
Darling please save your love for me

You can have fun with the crowd
But for crying out loud
Darling please save your love for me

Never let me go
Love me much too much
If you let me go
Life will loseits touch
What woul I be without you?
There's no place for me without you

Never let me go
I'd be so lost if you went away
Thered be a thousand hours in a day without you
I know

Because of one caress my world was overturned
At the very start
All my bridges burned by my flming heart
You'd never leave me would you?
You couldn't hurt me could you?

Never let me go
Never let me go

The night is like a lovely tune
Beware my foolish heart
How white the ever constant moon
Take care my foolish heart
There's a line between love and fascination
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
'Cause they all give the very same sensation
When you're lost in the magic of a kiss

His lips are much too close to mine
Beware my foolish heart
But should our eager lips combine
Then let the fire start
'Cause this time it isn't fascination
Or a dream that will fail and fall apart
It's love this time
It's love my foolish heart

My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
The way he discribed it he said 'd be better dead than alive
I didn't listen to his jive
I knew all along that he was all wrong
And I knew that he thought I was crazy but I'm not, oh no

My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
He said I need treatment but I'm not that easily led
He said I am t'he type that is most inclined
When out of his sight to be out of my mind
And he said I was nuts
No more ifs or ands or buts,oh no

They say as a child I appeard a littele bit Wild with all my crazy ideas
But I knew what was happening
I knew I was a genius
What's so strange when you know that you're a wizard at three
I knew that this was meant to be

Well they say little children are supposed to sleep tight
That's why I drank a fifth of vodka one night
My parents got frantic,didn't know what to do
But I saw some crazy scenes before I came to
Now do you think I was crazy
I may have been only three but I was swinging

They all laughed at A. Graham Bell
They all laughed at Edison and Einstein
Now why should I feel sorry if they just
Couldn't understand tha reason and the logic that went on in my head
I had a brain it was insane
So I just let them laugh at me when I refused to ride
On all those double decker buses
All because there was no driver on the top

My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
The way he described it he said I'd be better dead
Than alive
I didn't listen to his jive
I knew all along that he was all wrong
And I knew that he thought
I was crazy but I'm not oh no

My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
But I said dear doctor I think that it's you instaed
Because I have a thing that's unique and new
It proves that I'll heve the last laugh on you
'Cause instaed of one head
I got two
And you know two heads are better than one

In the still of the night
As I gaze from my window
At the moon in its flight
My thoughts all stray to you

In the still of the night
While the world is in slumber
Oh, the times without number
Darling, when I say to you

Do you love me
As I love you?
Are you my life to be,
My dream come true?
Or will this dream of mine fade out of sight?

Like the moon growing dim
On the rim of a hill
In the chill, still of the night

In the still of the night
Of the night

Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same

Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands
Oh, I do love you

Still I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

You've got this look I can't describe
You make me feel like I'm alive
When everything else is a fade
Without a doubt you're on my side

Heaven has been away too long
Can't find the words to write this song
Oh, your love

Still I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

I have come to understand
The way it is, it's not a secret anymore
'Cause we've been through that before
From tonight I know that you're the only one
I've been confused and in the dark, now I understand

I wonder why it is
I don't argue like this
With anyone but you
I wonder why it is

I won't let my guard down
For anyone but you
We do it all the time
Blowing out my mind

Just like a star across my sky
Just like an angel off the page
You have appeared to my life
Feel like I'll never be the same
Just like a song in my heart
Just like oil on my hands

Something cool
I'd like to order something cool
It's so warm here in town and this heat gets me down
Yes, I'd like something cool

My, it's nice to simply sit and rest awhile
You know it's a shame
I can't think of your name
I remember your smile

I don't ordinarily drink with strangers
I guess I usually drink alone
But you were so awfully nice to ask me
And I'm so terribly far from home

Like my dress I must confess it's very old
But it's simple and neat, it's just right for this heat
Save my furs for the cold
A cigarette, no I don't smoke them as a rule

But I'll have one, it might be fun with something cool

I'd bet you wouldn't imagine that I once had a house
With so many rooms you couldn't count them all
I'll bet that you couldn't imagine I had fifteen different boys
Who would beg and beg to take me to a ball

And I know you couldn't picture me
The time I went to Paris in the fall
And who would think the man that I loved
Was quite so handsome and quite so tall

Well, it's through, it's just a memory I had
One I almost forgot since the weather's so hot
And I'm feeling so bad about a date, oh wait, I'm such a fool
He's just a guy who stopped to buy me something cool

You moved like honey in my dream last night
Yeah, some old fires were burning
You came near to me and you endeared to me
But you couldn't quite discern me

Does that scare you? I'll let you run away
But your heart will not oblige you
You'll remember me like a melody
Yeah, I'll haunt the world inside you

And my big secret - Gonna win you over
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

I'll let you see me, I'll covet your regard
I'll invade your demeanor
And you'll yield to me like a scent in the breeze
And you'll wonder what it is about me

It's my big secret - Keeping you coming
Slow like honey, heavy with mood

Though dreams can be deceiving
Like faces are to hearts

They serve for sweet relieving
When fantasy and reality lie too far apart

So I stretch myself across, like a bridge
And I pull you to the edge
And stand there waiting
Trying to attain
The end to satisfy the story
Shall I release you?
Must I release you?
As I rise to meet my glory

But my big secret
Gonna hover over your life
Gonna keep you reaching
When I'm gone like yesterday
When I'm high like heaven
When I'm strong like music
cause I'm slow like honey, and
Heavy with mood

You see this girl, this girl's in love with you
Yes, I'm in love, who looks at you the way I do?
When you smile I can tell we know each other very well
How can I show you that I'm glad I got to know you?

'Cause I've heard some talk, they say you think I'm fine
This girl's in love and what I'd do to make you mine?
Tell me now is it so? Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking, don't let my heart keep breaking

'Cause I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love and you'll be my guy
If not I'll just die

Tell me now is it so? Don't let me be the last to know
My hands are shaking, don't let my heart keep breaking

'Cause I need your love, I want your love
Say you're in love and you'll be my guy
If not I'll just die

In this world of ordinary people, extraordinary people
I'm glad there is you
In this world of overrated pleasures, of underrated treasures
I'm so glad there is you

I live to love, I'll love to live with you beside me
This role so new I'll muddle through with you to guide me

In this world where very many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you

I live to love, I'll love to live with you beside me
This role so new I'll muddle through with you to guide me

In this world where very many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you
More than ever I'm glad there is you

Get out of town before it's too late, my love
Get out of town, be good to me please
Why wish me harm? Why not retire to a farm
And be contented to charm the birds off the trees?

Just disappear, I care for you much too much
And when you are near close to me, dear we touch too much
The times when we meet is so bittersweet
That darling it's getting me down so on your mark, get set, get out of town

Get out of town before it's too late, my love
Get out of town, be good to me please
Why wish me harm? Why not retire to a farm
And be contented to charm the birds off the trees?

Just disappear, I care for you much too much
And when you're near close to me, dear we touch too much
The times when we meet is so bittersweet that
Darling, it's getting me down so on your mark, get set, get out of town
Get out of town, get out of town

We were married on a rainy day
The sky was yellow and the grass was green
We signed the papers and drove away
I do it for your love

The rooms were musty and the pipes were old
All that winter we shared a cold
And drank all the orange juice that we could hold
I do it for your love

Found a rug in an old junk shop
And I brought it home to you
But on the way the colors ran
The orange bled the blue

The sting of reason, the splash of tears
The northern and southern hemispheres
Love emerges and it disappears
I do it for your love, I do it for your love

Found a rug in an old junk shop
And I brought it home to you
But on the way the colors ran
The orange bled the blue

The sting of reason, the splash of tears
The northern and southern hemispheres
Love emerges and it disappears
I do it for your love, I do it for your love
I do it for your love

Sing a song of sad young men, glasses full of rye
All the news is bad again, kiss your dreams goodbye
All the sad young men sitting in the bars
Knowing neon lights missing all the stars

All the sad young men drifting through the town
Drinking up the night, trying not to drown
All the sad young men singing in the cold
Trying to forget that they are growing old
All the sad young men choking on their words
Trying to be brave, running from the truth

Autumn turns the leaves to gold, slowly dies the heart
Sad young men are growing old that's the cruelest part
All the sad young men seek a certain smile
Someone they can hold for a little while
Tired little girl does the best she can
Trying to be gay for her sad young man

While the grimy moon watches from up above
All the sad young men play of making love
Misbegotten moon shine for sad young men
May your gentle light guide them home tonight
All the sad young men

What a day
Fortune smiled and came my way
Bringing love, I never thought I'd see
I'm so lucky to be me

What a night
Suddenly you came in sight
Looking just the way I'd hoped you'd be
I'm so lucky to be me

I am simply thunderstruck
At this change in my luck
Knew at once I wanted you
Never dreamed you'd want me too

I'm so proud
You chose me from all the crowd
There's no other girl I'd rather be
I'm so lucky to be me

I use to think it might be fun to be
Anyone else but me
I thought it would be a pleasant surprise
To see life through someone else's eyes

But now that I've found you
I've changed my point of view
And no I wouldn't give a dime to be
Anyone else but me

I am simply thunderstruck
At this change in my luck
Knew at once I wanted you
Never dreamed you'd want me too

I'm so proud
You chose me from all the crowd
There's no other girl I'd rather be
I could laugh out loud
I'm so lucky to be me

Intro:

A primeira vez que eu te encontrei, alimentei a ilusao de serfeliz
Eu era triste, sorri peguei no pinho e cantei
Tantos versos eu fiz em meu peito guardei
Um dia voce partiu, meu pinho emudeceu e a minha voz nagargan- ta morreu

Procuro esquecer a dor, nao sou capaz, meu violao naotoca mais
Eu vivo triste a meditar, nao canto mais, meu consolo

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 .........
