Kermit the Frog – Rainbow Connection Lyrics 13 years ago
You know, there's something about the Muppets that just makes ya wanna stand up and scream ''YAAAAAAAY!'' and flail your little green arms around. But seriously, this song has made me shed tears and sing from the heart on many occasions. And I've always wondered, ''Why ARE there so many songs about rainbows? What IS on the other side?'' Well, this is my theory:

Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
And what's on the other side? - My thoughts: This is an innocent question.

Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
And rainbows have nothing to hide - My thoughts: This is the answer for those who think too hard about every little thing and don't have fun with their imagination.

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 - My thoughts: Basically, Kermit knows to look beyond the rainbow and dream.

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

What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing
What do we think we might see?

All of us under its spell
We know that it's probably magic - My thoughts: Everyone decides to conform to common beliefs. But one person decided to be different. Soon, people started to follow the non-conforming and realized the beauty of dreaming outside of the lines.

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?
It may be one and the same

I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm supposed to be - My thoughts: I believe that the voices being heard are the sounds of adventure. You've all seen The Muppet Movie, right? All the Muppets setting out on an adventure to follow their dreams, you know? Well, that could be what the voices represent, like how aventure calls sailors to the sea.Kermit hearing the voices is probably his heart letting him know that he needs to get up outta the swamp and start on his aventures. It's ''something I'm supposed to be''.

Well, this is my first post and I hope I made it a little easier for... Just One Person. (A true Muppet fan would understand this reference) :)
