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?



If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow

Why, oh why can't I?
