Over the Rainbow lyrics

[Verse 1]

Somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high

There's a land that I heard of

Once in a lullaby



[Verse 2]

Somewhere over the rainbow

Skies are blue

And the dreams that you dare to dream

Really do come true



[Bridge]

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



[Verse 3]

Somewhere over the rainbow

Bluebirds fly

Birds fly over the rainbow

Why, then, oh, why can't I?



[Outro]

If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow

Why, oh, why can't I?
