When all the world is a hopeless jumble

And the raindrops tumble all around

Heaven opens a magic lane

When all the clouds darken up the skyway

There's a rainbow highway to be found

Leading from your windowpane

To a place behind the sun

Just a step beyond the rain

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high

There's a land that I dream of once in a lullabye

Somewhere over the rainbow

Skies are blue

And our 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

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 can't I Why can't I

Someday I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where troubles melt like lemon drops

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 can't I Why can't I
