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, bluebirds fly

Birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh why can't i?



(bis)



If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why, oh why can't i?
