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 wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where troubles smelled like lemon drops

Way 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?



(*repeat)



If happy little blue birds fly beyong the rainbow

Why, oh why can't I ?
