Lyrics of
Over The Rainbow

Somewhere Over the Rainbow is one of the most iconic songs of the 20th century, composed by Harold Arlen with lyrics by E.Y. Yip Harburg, for the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, starring Judy Garland. The song carries themes of hope and the desire to escape to a better place, a universal sentiment that has resonated with many over the years, making it immensely popular.

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There’s a land that I dreamed of once in a lullaby
Oh somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream, really do come true

Oh

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 that's where you'll find me

Oh somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow, why then oh why can't I
I ?
