Over the Rainbow

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 window pane

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 heard of once

In a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow

Skies are blue

And the dreams that you care 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 way 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?

If happy little bluebirds fly over the rainbow

Why oh why can't I?
