Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dream that you dream of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dream of
Really do come true.
Some day I'll wish upon a star
wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where Troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
thats where you find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to
Why then, oh why can't I?
I see trees of green lemons, red roses too
I watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue 'n clouds of white
The bright blessed of day, I like the dark
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
The colours of teh rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' 'How do you do?'
They're really saying 'I, I love you!'
I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
way up high
And the dream that you dream of
Why, oh why can't I?
