"Why are there so many songs about rainbows?

And what's on the other side?"

I am the one who wrote

songs about rainbows

'Cause I'm from 

The Other Side.

From my illusions

came hallucinations

and my past is what lies behind.

I had no reason

to hide from the seasons,

but I didn't want to see you cry.

You were upset

about something confusing.

I couldn't help you,

but I also didn't try.

And I'm so sorry

for hiding from worries,

but no connection could hide

your sighs.

And this is what it is:

the rainbow connection.

But it wasn't really a connection,

'Cause I hid from you

and severed the bond we worked so hard

to persevere through.
