The song Rainbow Connection is written by Paul William, Kenneth Ascher, originally performed by Kermit the Frog (Jim Henson) in The Muppet Movie in 1979.
This song instantly became a radio hit, with the same effect in The Muppet Movie as Over the Rainbow did in The Wizard of Oz. Something about Kermit's innocent whimsy captured the nation, and it was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song in 1979.
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
Some day 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
Some day 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 called 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
Some day we'll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
La da da di da da dum da duh da da dum di da dum
