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