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

Some day 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 chimny 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
Across the rainbow
Why oh why, can't I?
