Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me,
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
Away above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow, blue - birds fly;
Birds fly over the rainbow -
Why, then, oh why can't I?
If happy little blue - birds fly
Beyond the rainbow why, oh why can't I?
