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.
Some day 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?
