Music written by Harold Arlen, lyrics by E.Y. "Yip" Harburg.
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There`s a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over that 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, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over that rainbow
Why, oh, why can`t I?
If happy little bluebirds fly above the rainbow
Why, oh, why can`t I?
