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

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

if birds can fly over the rainbow

why then oh why can't i

bracketed

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

if birds can fly over the rainbow

why then oh why can't i

if happy little bluebirds

fly beyond the rainbow

why oh why can't i
