Willie Nelson - 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
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
Look what it's done so far
And what's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
And what do you think we might see
The lovers, the dreamers and me
All of us wonder 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 in 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

Willie's reserve 420 forever 🌲💚🌲💚🍁🌲🍁💚🐚🍁💚🌲🍒🐚🍁💚🍒🌲🍁💚🍒🍁
This leads me to believe Willie Nelson has enough depth and reverence enough to be believable as a human being. 😄
Simple and profound as always Willie.
this was uploaded a day before i was born
Note to self: don’t watch this if you don’t want to cry
Ah yes my favorite muppet
Shame he dosent hit the 3rd in “connection”
Willie ,you won't read this but we love the magic that you have conjured for the best part of all of our lives. From the bottom of all of our hearts thanks and God bless you.

wanting, peace
singing, on
all my
ninety foot
trees
I saw Willie sing this at Paramount Theater in Cedar Rapids Iowa one of the best concerts Ive been blessed to see.
Was this flimed in Austin that park looks so familiar
When Willy Nelson gathers enough people to cover a piece by Kermit, it's time to pay attention.
I hope you Rest in Peace Man.The world sure is going to miss you Buddy.
Andy T willie nelson is not dead my man
John Doe You’re kidding? :)
Andy T nope im not
Andy T he very much alive sir
Its bitter sweet hearing him sing this.
Someone plug this into Death Stranding
I wish this was a little less produced
Will you please visit omaha, Nebraska, and do a concert here???????
Did you all see the 53rd CMA'S Kacey and Willie singing Rainbow Connection it was so beautiful thank you for the performance.
At this moment he has 420K subs. Much love to all
One of my favorite songs! Just Awesome!
Willie you make my heart soar. Keep on singing. Love you.
I just stumbled on this after Willie Nelson and Kacey Musgraves sang the song on the Country Music Awards
Terrence Ragin same, it was great
Willie ❤️ Legend.

I think he sang this song for his son who passed, he sings about what's on the other side and the little boy in the video looks just like a picture of his son when he was little and the little boy is through out the video and at the very end.. I think he's still grieving in this song, it's a really poinete and touching song.
here after him and kacey did this live
Here after he and Kaceys performance!!! Long Live Willie!
Willie and Kacey Musgraves just performed this on the CMT awards and killed it. What a performance.
Yeah and what stinks is you can tell he is struggling. He’s such a legend and I left a comment on the video here on YouTube if the performance and I can’t stop chocking up about it....it’s like a goodbye...😔😢
@sasquatchSGK yea his voice is strained. Still amazing
It was phenomenal. Even though he was struggling and weak and frail sounding Kasey Musgrave tone down her performance at her vocals to not overpower or overshadow him. It was awesome
No disrespect intended : I am age 68 and a life long asthmatic. In the 1950's I was in the hospital as a kid more than I was home. Medicines were few, they stuck me in an oxygen tent for a week or two per visit. Today, the pharmaceutical people have amazing inhalers that do work even for us older generation crowd. Willie has almost 20 years on me and I doubt I'll ever see age 86. He does great but he might be able to do better with the proper medication(s).
Phillip when I heard Willie singing I couldn’t hold back the tears. He’s so old now & you can hear it in his voice. And then you hear Kacey & her buttery angelic youthful voice & emotions hit me more. I cried the entire performance. Think I couldn’t stop crying because I know he won’t be here forever...seeing & hearing the contrast yet harmony of them...it was more than my poor heart could handle. 😭❤️
👍👍👍

The same amount of views in 9 years that some steaming pile of autotuned dreck will fetch in 9 days.......
ROOKTABULA okay?
@dat guy you know Sighhhhhh. Let me spell it out for you:
The "taste" of the modern music consumer and the ability to avoid pure, corporate engineered SHIT?
Brutal.
Anyone still think Magic doesnt exist?
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Andy Bernard to Pam Beesly
Literally the best song ever written
Magnificent
This song is just timeless. Willie sings with an honesty that just touches the soul. And we also have to commend the song’s writers, Paul Williams (who you may also know as Little Enos from “Smokey and the Bandit”) and Kenneth Ascher, for writing such a sentimental masterpiece.
The lovers the dreamers and me
2019???
Yes?
Jimmy Carter hospitalized, needed this on this abnormally snowy cold day.
This song makes me cry.
Willie’s got it like that (10second mandatory ads before you can watch)
ainbowray onnectionkay
Light , love, and everything in our consciousness projection....the rainbow connection.
someday we will find it ,the lovers the dreamers and we..
Hey there. I just wanted some nostalgia. I got it. Thanks

2:00 you're welcome
Tears to my eyes - thank you Willie
Holy crap. This is beautiful.

This and kermit (Jim Henson) were both amazing im obsessed with the Movie
Elvis was the king Willie is the master so please don't die there is already too much grief in the world

REPLAY BUTTON 2:00
My Angel you're mine
"rainbow connection"
Isti ja
za 15-20 godina
Love watching the Mothers with their children in this. Just perfect!
GOD bless you Willie. 🙏🙏🙏
Lovesong <3
My band teacher is leaving next week and we are playing this for his concert
Song starts at 1:50
It takes balls for a legendary country singer to sing s song by a frog
"I should have learned to play that guitar/" No one can say it like you do Willie. You are definitely "The Man".
Perfection.
This song and this video just gets better over the years.
Bill Henson + Kermit + Willie, thank you.
Anyone from The Office because of Andy singing it to Pam?
💯🔥
He and Jim Hensons voice for Kermit should've done a duet years and years ago
Rainbow Connetion is a classic song.. It remind me of someone from the past and can not help to teary eyes.
Why am I crying at the barn rn
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 chose 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
Look what it's done so far
And what's so amazing
That keeps us star gazing
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 she young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
There's something that I'm supposed to be
Someday we'll find it
The rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
This is terrible, period.
Willie is so cool. This video was done a way back 2001. Boy the world has changed. I just hope that we can all find our rainbows and have a little bit more peace and less trauma. Willie is one really cool dude laid back. Somehow we got lost along the way and I don't know why I really cried when I watch this cuz all I want is a little bit of peace. And it made me think of John Lennon dreams dream away or imagine. You think we'd get it right but then we fall back into our same old tribal instincts and start building up walls. It's time we start tearing them back down start treating each other with love peace and understanding. Yes you may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one. I'm quoting John Lennon.
The song starts at 1:57. You're welcome.
Anyone coming from the Office? Andy singing to Pam.
