“If they find me racing white horses,
They'll not take me for a buoy.”

“Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers and me.”

Context: Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side?

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
