Over the Rainbow

[Verse]
When all the world is a hopeless jumbo
And the raindrops tumble all around
Heaven opens a magic lane
When all the clouds open up, the skyway
There’s a rainbow highway to be found
Leading from your window pane
To a place beyond the sun
Just a step beyond the rain

[Chorus 1]
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

[Chorus 2]
Someday I 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

[Post-Chorus]
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?
