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

And 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?

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

Oh somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
If birds can 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?
