Somewhere 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 cloud 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 rainbow way up high

There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby

And somewhere over rainbow blue birds fly

Oh, if birds can fly over rainbow

Why, then why can't I?

Some day I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

And troubles melt like lemon drops

Away above the chimney tops that's where you'll find me

Somewhere over rainbow bluebirds fly

If birds can fly over the rainbow

Why, then 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 rainbow bluebirds fly

Oh, 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?
