oooooo. 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
high above the chimney tops. that's where you'll find me. somewhere over the rainbow
bluebirds fly. they fly over the rainbow
why then - oh
why can't i?
i see trees of green
red roses too. i watch them bloom for me and you. and i think to myself
what a wonderful world. well
i see skies of blue and i see clouds of white. the brightness of day and light
darkness of night. and i think to myself
what a wonderful world. the colours of the rainbow
so pretty in the sky
are also on the faces of people passin' by. i see friends shakin' hands
saying how do you do!"
