Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high

And the dreams that you dreamed of

Once in a lullaby


Somewhere over the rainbow

Blue birds fly

And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true


Someday I'll wish upon a star

Wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where trouble melts like lemon drops

High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly

And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I?


Well I see trees of green and

Red roses too,

I'll watch them bloom for me and you

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world


Well I see skies of blue

And I see clouds of white

And the brightness of day

I like the dark

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world


The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces of people passing by

I see friends shaking hands

Saying, "How do you do?"

They're really saying, I...I love you


I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,

They'll learn much more

Than we'll ever know


And I think to myself

What a wonderful world


Someday I'll wish upon a star,

Wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where trouble melts like lemon drops

High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me

Oh, Somewhere over the rainbow way up high

And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I?
