somewhere over the rainbow

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 dared 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

way above the chimney tops

that's where you'll find me

oh

somewhere over the rainbow

bluebirds fly

birds fly over the rainbow

why

then oh why

can't i

someday i'll wish upon a star

and wake up where the clouds are far behind me

where troubles melt like lemon drops

way above the chimney tops

that's where you'll find me

oh

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
