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'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
    
Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh, why can't I?
    
Someday I'll wake and rub my eyes
And in that land beyond the skies
You'll find me
I'll be a laughing daffodil
And leave the silly cares that
Fill my mind behind me
    
Somewhere over that rainbow
Bluebirds fly
If birds can fly over the rainbow
Why, then why can't I?
    
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?
