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?

** Repeat

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the Rainbow
Why, oh, why can't I?

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of,
dreams really do come true
Someday I’ll wish upon a star, wake up where
the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops,
that’s where you’ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh
why can’t I?
Well I see trees of green and red roses too,
I’ll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Well I see skies of blue and clouds of white
and the brightness of day
I like the dark
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands saying,
How do you do?
They’re really saying, I ? I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
they’ll learn much more than we’ll know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Someday I’ll wish upon a star, wake up where
the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops,
that’s where you’ll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dreams that you dare to, oh why, oh
why can’t I?
