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
Oh high 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?

If happy little blue birds fly
Over the rainbow
Why oh why can't... I?
