Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high There's a land that I've 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, blue birds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then, oh, why can't I? ♪ Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why then, oh, why can't I?
