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?

somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue

and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true

if happy little blue birds fly beyong the rainbow

why, oh why can"t i ?

why, oh why can"t i ?
