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 trouble melts like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh, why can't I?
When all the world is a hopeless jungle
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
To a place behind the sun
Just a step behind the rain
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds 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?
