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
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
 Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I
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
Somewhere over the rainbow
 Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I
Uuu
Uuu
