Archivist Connection

[To the tune of Rainbow Connection]

Why aren’t there many songs about archivists and what they bring to our lives?
Archives are visions, not only illusions, and archives have nothing to hide.
So we’ve been told and some choose to leverage it.
I know they’re right wait and see.
Someday we’ll find it, the archivist connection,
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Who said that questions would be heard and answered when wished on the historical collection?
Someone asks it and archivists deliver.
Look what it’s done so far.
What’s so amazing that keeps us preserving and what do we think we might see?
Someday we’ll find it, the archivist 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 missed voices?
I’ve heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young users.
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.
Someday we’ll find it, the archivist connection,
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
