Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high There’s a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Somewhere over that rainbow All skies are blue, oh And where 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 And troubles mount like lemon drops Way above the chimney tops That’s where you’ll find me Somewhere over the rainbow Bluebirds fly, oh If birds can fly over the rainbow Why, then why can’t I? Someday I’ll wake and rub my eyes And in that land beyond the skies You’ll find me I’ll be a laughing daffodil And leave the silly cares that Fill my mind behind me Somewhere over that rainbow Bluebirds fly If birds can fly over the rainbow Why, then why can’t I? If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh why can’t I?
