Over The Rainbow lyrics

When all the world is a hopeless jumble

And the raindrops tumble all around

Heaven opens a magic lane

And when all the clouds 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

Oh

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 can come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds

Are far behind me

Where troubles melt like lemon drops

Way up above the chimney tops

That's where you'll find me

Somewhere, over the rainbow

Blue birds fly

Birds fly over that rainbow

Why then, oh, why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow

Why, oh, why can't I?
