Over The Rainbow Lyrics

Over The Rainbow lyrics

Someplace where there isn't any trouble...
...do you suppose there is such a
place, Toto?
There must be. It's not a place you can get to by a boat or a
train.
It's far, far away...
Behind the moon
Beyond the
rain

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 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
Away above the
chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow,
bluebirds fly,
Birds fly over the rainbow,
Why then, oh why can't
I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow,
Why oh why
can't
I?

---------------------------------------------------------------

Reprise
Cut from the Movie
(Judy sang this reprise in the witch's
castle)

Someday I'll wake and rub my eyes,
and in that land beyond
the skies you'll find me.
I'll be a laughing daffodil
and leave the silly
cares that fill
my mind behind me.

If happy little bluebirds
fly
Beyond the rainbow,
Why oh why can't
I?

Lyrics from the Original Sheet Music

When all the world is a hopeless
jumble
and the raindrops tumble all around,
Heaven opens a magic
lane.
When all the clouds darken up the skyway,
there's a rainbow highway
to be found,
Leading from your window pane.
To a place behind the
sun,
Just a step beyond the rain.

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 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,
away, above the
chimney tops, that's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh why can't
I?

If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow,
why oh why can't
I?
